DescriptionAirfix is a British model making company that have been producing injection-moulded plastic scale model kits since 1939. Airfix model kits are so popular in the UK that the brand has become synonymous with plastic model kits. Their range includes cars, naval vessels, aircraft and trains, and they are particularly well known for their range of military models, particularly WW2-era models.The F-35 Lightning II is a family of US single-seat supersonic fighters first introduced in 2015. The F-35B is a short take-off and vertical landing (STOVL) variant of the Lightning II. Similar in size to the F-35A, about a third of the fuel capacity is sacrificed to accommodate the lift fan.This lovely little F-35B starter kit from Airfix is a great introduction to model building for kids and adults alike. With 42 pieces, the starter kit comes with the paints, brushes and glue required to begin building, and as a beginner-level model kit, makes a great gift for anyone.
