Tamiya 60792 - 1/72 F-35A Lightning II detailed kit briefing

The Tamiya 60792 provides a faithful 1/72 rendition of the F-35A Lightning II, featuring engraved panel work and distinct RAM area representation. The mouldings permit a clean assembly and deliver a credible display piece when finished.

Context on the F-35A Lightning II fighter

As a representative fifth generation aircraft, the F-35A integrates stealth shaping with advanced avionics and datalink capabilities. Its continued deployment across several nations makes it a popular subject for contemporary scale modelling.

Model composition and assembly guidance

Key highlights include accurate Y-shaped intake forms, cockpit detail, landing gear bay structure and a one-piece engine nozzle. The kit offers three selectable ordnance configurations for display variation: stealth, air-to-air and beast. Assembly requires glue and paint, and careful masking will preserve panel definition.
