Hasegawa 02475 - 1/72 Scale NASA X-29 Kit for Modellers  [HA-02475]

Hasegawa 1/72 X-29 NASA kit - a concise model of a research classic

The Hasegawa 02475 1/72 X-29 model offers a compact but accurate representation of an icon of flight testing. Its forward-swept wing form and canard controls are rendered to convey the experimental nature of the original aircraft.

How the X-29 influenced aerodynamic study

Produced by Grumman for NASA and the US Air Force during the 1980s, the X-29 trials explored forward-swept wing benefits and structural trade-offs. Even with only a few flying prototypes, the findings informed later approaches to flight control and composite construction.

Build quality and display considerations

This Hasegawa kit balances crisp surface detail with manageable assembly in 1/72 scale. It suits modellers who prefer neat seam lines, careful painting and straightforward finishing to produce a museum-style miniature.
