Faithful 1/48 Replica of the EA-18G Growler

The Italeri 2716S - 1/48 EA-18G Growler kit presents a faithful miniature of the naval electronic attack aircraft, combining Super Hornet lines with mission-specific pods and fittings. Surface features and control surfaces are reproduced to assist realistic finishing.

Modelmakers will appreciate the parts that convey the tandem seating arrangement and the external jamming equipment, making this kit a good choice for display-oriented builds. The assembly offers a rewarding build for those used to scale aircraft modelling.

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Model Dimensions: 38.1 cm
  • Assembly Required: Yes
  • Paint and Decals: Not Included

Can this kit be built into a cockpit-open display?

Yes, with careful trimming and painting you can pose the canopy open and detail the cockpit; leave mounting points unglued until painting is complete for easier handling.

Are decals included and how should they be applied?

Decals are not supplied. For aftermarket decals, prepare a smooth gloss surface, apply decal setting solution if needed, and seal with a clear coat to protect the finish.

What tools help achieve neat seams and panel lines?

Use fine sanding sticks, liquid cement for hidden seams, and a pin vise for locating small parts. A light wash highlights panel lines without obscuring recessed detail.

Is the finished model suitable for competitions?

With extra detailing, careful paintwork and clean assembly this kit can reach display standards suitable for local modelling shows or club competitions.
