Hasegawa 02475 - 1/72 NASA X-29 Display Kit (Experimental Aircraft)  [HA-02475]

Compact Hasegawa 1/72 X-29 NASA kit for enthusiasts

The Hasegawa 02475 X-29 1/72 model captures the striking silhouette of an experimental test jet. Its forward-swept wing geometry and canards are faithfully represented, offering modellers a faithful small-scale rendition suitable for cabinets and dioramas.

Significance of the X-29 test programme

Developed by Grumman with NASA and the US Air Force in the 1980s, the X-29 served to evaluate forward-swept wings and advanced control concepts. The programme provided valuable aerodynamic and material data despite the limited number of prototype aircraft.

What to expect when building and finishing

This kit provides well-fitting parts and accurate panel lines for its scale. Builders will find the assembly straightforward with careful gluing, and a painted finish can highlight the aircraft's unique planform for an eye-catching display.
