F-35A Lightning II, Joint Strike Fighter - Academy 12507 The Lockheed F-35 is a 5th Gen stealth fighter produced in three variants: the F-35A, B, and C. The F-35A CTOL (Conventional take-off and Landing) variant has four internal weapons stations housed within two weapons bays and three external weapons stations. It is the lightest and most maneuverable of the three variants and is intended for use on land from improved runways. The F-35B STOVL (Short Take Off and Verticle Landing) can operate from ships and unimproved runways. The F-35C is explicitly intended for carrier operations and relies on catapult-assisted takeoffs and arrested landings. The F-35 will replace many aircraft currently with the USAF, USN, and USMC, including A-10s, F-16s, and others. This model authentically replicates the F-35A Lightning II in full detail in 1/72 scale. The fully assembled model is 21.8cm long and 6cm tall.
