Yes, the simplified parts and snap-fit assembly make it a fine starter project for anyone new to plastic modelling or looking for a low-commitment build.
Use hobby acrylic or enamel paints suited to polystyrene plastic; reference photos of J.A.S.D.F. liveries will help match tones and markings accurately.
A light coat of clear varnish or matt lacquer will protect paint and decals; apply thin, even layers and allow full drying between coats for best results.
