The Tamiya 1/72 F-35B Lightning II (60793) reproduces the STOVL variant of the F-35 in 1/72 scale — the short take-off and vertical landing version operated by the US Marine Corps and the Royal Navy. The F-35B's ability to operate from smaller carriers and assault ships without catapults gives it unmatched deployment flexibility among stealth combat aircraft. Royal Navy F-35Bs operate from HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales, restoring fixed-wing carrier aviation to Britain after a decade's absence.
Tamiya's 1/72 kit captures the F-35B's distinctive STOVL features including the lift fan door in this compact scale.
Kit highlights:
Accurate F-35B STOVL variant in 1/72 scale
Lift fan door and rotating nozzle detail
USMC and Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm markings
Compact scale ideal for multi-aircraft display
