Italeri 1/72 EF-111A Raven - Scale Model of a Dedicated Electronic Warfare Aircraft

The Italeri 1/72 EF-111A Raven plastic kit replicates a specialised electronic warfare platform used by the US Air Force. The kit emphasises external accuracy and provides a satisfying build for modellers who focus on military subject matter and authentic finishes.

Background and Tactical Use

Introduced to replace older EW types, the Raven carried sophisticated jamming gear that helped shield friendly aircraft from enemy radar. Its operational record across the 1980s and 1990s makes it a meaningful scale subject for enthusiasts of modern military aviation.

Model Features and Display Considerations

The moulded parts allow the builder to reproduce the EF-111A's smooth fuselage and characteristic details. The 1/72 scale keeps the model display-friendly while preserving key detail, making it suitable for a range of display cabinets and dioramas.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Polystyrene plastic

The kit provides accurate external lines and surfaces suitable for display. Fine detailing and weathering will enhance realism for show standard models.
Standard polystyrene cement and acrylic or enamel model paints are recommended. Use primer and thin coats for an even finish.
Mask clear areas before spraying and handle canopies with soft tools to avoid scratching. Use a gentle cleaner before applying mask tape.
Yes, subtle panel wash, light chipping and selective fading suit this subject and add realism without obscuring the decals and markings.
