Tamiya welcomes another F-35 Lightning II variant, F-35C in our 1/48 Aircraft Series! Lockheed Martin’s F-35 Lightning II is a 5th Generation fighter developed under the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) program, successfully providing extremely low observability, network connectivity and exemplary situational awareness.

Developed to take over from Navy F/A-18s, the F-35C is designed for use with CATOBAR (catapult assisted takeoff but arrested recovery) systems.

Larger wings and horizontal stabilizers than other F-35 variants help it with slower landings on carriers, while its wing tips fold ninety degrees upward to allow for more room on deck.

The F-35C has a rear arresting hook which catches the arresting cables on the flight deck, slowing it and allowing a landing in the limited space.

Also, the F-35C nose landing gear is connected to the catapult shuttle via its catapult hook for catapult-assisted takeoffs.

Along with the F-35A and the F-35B, the F-35C will lead air arms across the world for many years to come.

This is a 1/48 scale plastic model assembly kit.

 The distinctive fuselage form of the F-35C – which has larger wings and horizontal stabilizers than other F-35 variants for slower landings – is authentically captured in style.

The model is assembled parked.

Fuselage parts are newly moulded, excluding canopy and weapons bay doors parts.

Fine recreations of Radar Absorbent Material (RAM) are moulded into fuselage surfaces.

Choose parts to recreate:
 - Deployed or folded wing tips (Parts can be interchanged after assembly.)
 - Deployed or stowed air fuel probe on the right side of nose
 - Open or closed arresting hook door
 - Open or closed canopy (Parts can be interchanged after assembly.) 
 - Open or closed weapons bay doors
 - Deployed or stowed boarding ladder

Leading-edge and trailing-edge control surfaces are depicted down.

Parts to render wheel chocks are also included.

Features realistic renderings of pylons (F-35C's dedicated design) under wings and lower fuselage gun pod.

(The gun pod is not attached if using RCS enhancers.)

This kit also features realistic renderings of the following sections: 
 - Nose undersurface side details 
 - Y- shaped air intakes 
 - Weapons bay inside details including depictions of wiring 
 - Cockpit and landing gear bays
 - Engine nozzle (5-piece design) 
 - Martin-Baker US16E ejection seat
 - RCS (radar cross section) enhancers affixed to top and bottom sections (two for each, four in total) during basic training exercises, but not in live action or more complex exercises

Choose whether to assemble the model in stealth mode (no external ordnance), air-to-air mode (missiles only), or beast mode (full ordnance).

Includes various kinds of ordnance: AIM-9X Sidewinder x2, AIM-120C AMRAAM x2, GBU-12 Paveway II x4, and GBU-31 JDAM x2.

Masking stickers for the canopy and a realistically recreated seated pilot figure with Helmet-Mounted 

Display (HMD) included.

Comes with decals to depict 6 marking options (4 from United States Navy and 2 from United States Marine Corps.).
