F-35C Lightning II: Naval Aviation Excellence in 1/72 Scale

The Definitive Carrier-Based Stealth Fighter Model

Experience the cutting-edge of naval aviation with this exquisite F-35C Lightning II model kit. Meticulously crafted in convenient 1/72 scale for easy display and management, this kit inherits the remarkable detail and precision of our acclaimed 1/48 scale version. Based on extensive research of the actual aircraft, this carrier variant stands as the definitive F-35C representation in 1/72 scale!

Naval Stealth Power Perfected

The F-35C represents the pinnacle of carrier-based aviation technology, specifically engineered for catapult-assisted take-offs and barrier arrested recoveries on aircraft carriers. Distinguished from its siblings by enlarged wings with foldable wingtips, enhanced control surfaces for superior low-speed handling, reinforced landing gear to withstand carrier operations, dual-wheel nose gear, and a robust tailhook for arrestor cable engagement. The expanded wing area delivers reduced landing speeds while simultaneously extending range and increasing payload capacity.
