TAMIYA LOCKHEED MARTIN F-35 LIGHTNING II

$89.95
Description
The F-35 Lightning II is an ambitious 5th Generation aircraft that aims to meet the needs of different U.S. service arms via three different variants. Our model kits of the A and B variants have proven to be model fan favorites since their introduction in 2022 and 2023, respectively. We now complete the variant journey with this model assembly kit which recreates the F-35C.
About the F-35C
The F-35C is a carrier-based variant designed for catapult-assisted take-off, barrier arrested recovery operations from aircraft carriers. Compared to the F-35A, the F-35C features larger wings with foldable wingtip sections, larger control surfaces for improved low-speed control, stronger landing gear for the stresses of carrier arrested landings, a twin-wheel nose gear, and a stronger tailhook for use with carrier arrestor cables. The larger wing area allows for decreased landing speed while increasing both range and payload.
