A reproduction of the VMFA-242 aircraft with a large bat painted on the top of the fuselage!

Hasegawa brings us a 1/72-scale model kit of the F-35 Lightning II, B version, with a special bat marking on the top surface of the fuselage! The upper and lower doors of the lift fan section and the engine section door can be opened or closed; the landing gear can be built in flight or parked mode. The nozzle can be moved using a rotating gimmick, allowing you to recreate the takeoff position (short-field takeoff). A seated pilot figure and a display stand are included; decals for the U.S. Marine corps 242nd Marine Fighter Attack Squadron "Bats," squadron leader's aircraft DT01, from Iwakuni Base,
