Highly Detailed Modern Stealth Fighter
The Academy 1/72 F-35A "1000th Lightning II" kit delivers a true-to-life replica of the advanced multirole stealth aircraft. Every detail-from the cockpit and landing gear to the internal weapons bay and pilot figure-is carefully recreated. Builders can choose open or closed display options for the landing gear and bay doors, with accurate missile loadouts included for added realism.
Delicate Panel Line Expression
True to the aircraft's sleek, radar-evading design, the model features finely engraved panel lines and precisely shaped fuselage surfaces. These subtle but crisp details enhance realism, allowing the finished build to reflect the clean yet complex surface characteristics of the real F-35A Lightning II.
Different Decal Options
Background Information
Lockheed Martin marked a significant milestone in mid-2024 when the 1,000th F-35 Lightning II, aircraft number 22-5696, was delivered. The production program of the advanced multirole stealth fighter is now one of the most extensive in modern military aviation history, supported by widespread global adoption. Aircraft variants are tailored for different operational needs: conventional take-off and landing (CTOL) F-35A, short take off and vertical landing (STOVL) F-35B, and carrier-capable F-35C.
