Academy's laser focus is on creating military with a spot on scale accuracy. We strive for shape and contours that are blueprint perfect. For instance, this kit features Cartograph decals and photo-etched parts; details that are crisp with subtle, ultra-fine panel lines,  no glaring gaps; surfaces that are pleasing to the eye and smooth to the touch, and just the right amount of parts to assure detail without being tedious.

Features

• Accurately detailed panel lines and rivets
• Precisely engraved cockpit, landing gear and bomb-bay
• Dive flap and other photo-etched parts included
• Cartograf decal
