This model took me about 3 weeks to complete, during which I worked on it about 2-3 times a week, for a couple hours each. While there are some gaps, they can be straightforwardly fixed and cover up nicely. The paint machinate is easy and decals are very true, in place of the 412th Test Wing at Edwards AFB in CA.I cultured a lot about the F-22 and USAF while I was effective on this. If no matter what thing, it is very educational.I love this 1/72 scale since its exact for displaying on a stand. I made an acrylic stand from cheap notes I selected up at TAP. I also made the airplane CLOSED with no upstairs hallway gear or any missiles. It looks best that way, like its short. In fact, I only used half of the sprue! That made the model even easier, which is why assembling it was quick for me.By and large this model is exceptional! I've made only half a dozen models in my life but only absolutely refined 2, counting this one. It's beyond doubt attainable, and will look great if you invest the $$ in the gear and modeling tools, paints, and airbrush, and modest time.Check out my cinema. - Mark Twain
I bought this develop for my son's second develop construction experience. Unfortunately, there were a few quality tribulations which prevented him from enjoying the develop as much as he could. Three pieces were not fully formed (one was a main body part but we managed to hide the short notes) and the weapons bay door was warped and needed to be glued in house to keep it flush with the rest of the body. On the good side, the directions were clear and the suggestion for a camo pattern gave this smooth a splendid look. Just a note about models of this scale (not point to Italeri): some of the pieces are extremely small and my son has a lot of problem with setting some pieces in house. For younger builders, I'd urge a develop of a larger scale.

Italeri F/A-22 Raptor
Meticulous 1/72 scale assembly model kit of the Lockheed Martin/Boeing F-22 Raptor, a fifth-generation fighter aircraft (sometimes referred to as generation-five or "gen 5" fighter) currently in squad benefit with the United States Air Force. As of 2009, the Raptor is the only known fifth-generation fighter deployed for committed benefit by any state in the world. The Raptor is a vastly well ahead air-superiority fighter aircraft that encapsulates the newest in aircraft point technologies that contain secrecy, supercruise, thrust-vectoring, and the vastly well ahead AESA radar logic, just to name a few. As a fighter aircraft, the Raptor is competent of out direction any generation-four fighter aircrafts in benefit today and thus seizing complete power of enemy air space. In addition, the Raptor is also a versatile platform that can go a diversity of ground attack and electronic combat missions. The Raptor is painstaking by many the single greatest fighter aircraft ever bent to date, and until the Raptor encounters a additional gen-5 fighter sometimes in the future, it will remained a dominant force in the skies over bestow and future combat theaters for the U.S. Air Force. This model kit comes with decals for two F-22 versions: Raptor 01, "Moral fiber of America" and F-22 AF002, Edwards AFB.
