Lockheed F-35 B Lightning II - Tamiya 1/48 Aircraft Kit

This model kit showcases the cutting-edge F-35B Lightning II variant in a stunning 1/48 scale from our famous Aircraft Series. Developed as part of the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program, this aircraft combines multiple functions in its design and comes in three variations: the F-35A conventional take-off and landing (CTOL) aircraft, the F-35B short take-off, vertical landing (STOVL), and the F-35C carrier take-off and landing (CV). The F-35B is the successor to the AV-8B Harrier II and is renowned for its supersonic flight capabilities and STOVL technology, making it a highly sought-after aircraft by the U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Air Force, and other nations like Italy and Japan. With its ability to operate from both aircraft carriers and short runways, the F-35B is poised to become a major force in the skies around the globe.
