• Variable sweeping wings are depicted!
• Distinct parts – interchangeable after completion – depict sealing plates and air bags with the wing in various positions.
• Canopy, air intake side sections and fuselage sides are slide molded to ensure their shapes and surfaces are accurately depicted.
• Horizontal stabilizers move thanks to poly caps.
• The modeler has a choice of open and closed fuel probe (on the right of the nose) and boarding ladder and step (on fuselage left).
• Parts are included for recreating laser-guided bombs, LANTIRN pod and air-to-air missiles.
• The model comes with 2 seated crew figures and 5 U.S. Navy marking options.
