Italeri 1469 - 1/72 Lockheed F-35C Lightning II CATOBAR Introduction

The Italeri 1/72 representation of the Lockheed F-35C Lightning II emphasises the naval CATOBAR role and the aircrafts stealthy silhouette. This kit appeals to collectors and builders who focus on current-generation carrier aircraft and precise model finishing.

Precision moulding and carrier-specific geometry

The model highlights the F-35C's expanded wing area and reinforced landing gear designed for carrier launches and recoveries. Builders will notice crisp panel lines and small parts that benefit from careful handling and alignment.

Presentation and collection considerations

Perfect for modern-fighter displays, the F-35C complements other 1/72 contemporary aircraft and can be presented on a simple stand or integrated into more elaborate carrier scenes.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Polystyrene
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included
  • Parts: Detailed components for realistic assembly
Out of the box the assembled model will show shape, but painting is recommended to achieve an authentic finish and to highlight panel detail.
Other modern 1/72 military jets and carrier accessories make ideal companions for a cohesive display at the same scale.
Contact the retailer or Italeri customer support for spare part options, providing the kit name and part reference where possible.
Most decals respond well to careful sealing with clear coats before and after light weathering; test techniques on a spare decal first.
Use fine tweezers, a magnifier and a steady workspace. Dry-fit pieces before gluing and trim excess flash to improve fit.
