Overview - Italeri 1/72 EF 2000 Typhoon IIB

The Eurofighter Typhoon is the result of a joint European aerospace effort to produce a capable multi-role combat aircraft. Its distinctive canard-delta geometry improves maneuverability and control. Twin Eurojet EJ200 turbofans provide the thrust for high-speed flight, with operational speeds reaching up to Mach 2.

Model accuracy and presentation

Italeri's 1/72 Typhoon reproduces the aircraft's lines and panel detail faithfully. A super decal sheet is provided to allow a range of authentic liveries and unit insignia. The finished model presents well alongside contemporary jet subjects and in thematic displays.

Construction notes for modellers

Assembly rewards careful trimming, alignment and patience when fitting small components. The kit is suitable for intermediate builders, with ample scope for more advanced finishing and weathering techniques. A well-prepared paint and decal job will highlight the Typhoon's characteristic surfaces.

Yes. The basic cockpit can be enhanced with resin or photo-etch upgrades if you want higher cockpit fidelity and extra detail.
Masking the canopy is recommended to keep clear parts free from paint. Use low-tack tape and cut masks to the canopy shape for neat glazing work.
Once decals are fully dry, apply a clear varnish coat to seal them. Choose matte, satin or gloss depending on the intended operational finish.
