TAMIYA 1/72 LOCKHEED MARTIN F-35A LIGHTNING II

Tamiya 1/72 Lockheed Martin F-35A Lightning II Plastic Model Kit

Bring one of the world's most advanced fifth-generation fighters to life with the Tamiya 1/72 Lockheed Martin F-35A Lightning II. Drawing on extensive research and detailed features developed for Tamiya's larger-scale F-35A, this highly detailed plastic model kit captures the aircraft's stealth-focused design and advanced configuration in an easy-to-display 1/72 scale.

Please note this is an unassembled plastic model kit requiring assembly; paints, cement and hobby tools are not included and are required to complete the model.

The F-35A is the conventional take-off and landing member of the F-35 Lightning II family. Developed under the Joint Strike Fighter Program, the aircraft combines advanced stealth characteristics, network connectivity and multifunction capabilities. Tamiya's kit provides several weapons configurations, allowing the finished model to represent different operational loadouts.
