Hasegawa 1/48 Mitsubishi F-2B: Precision 1/48 scale representation of the J.A.S.D.F. support fighter

The Mitsubishi F-2B is noted for its avionics suite and support roles within the J.A.S.D.F. This Hasegawa 07229 1/48 kit reproduces the aircrafts main features with high fidelity. The crisp moulding and proportionate parts make it a satisfying project for anyone who enjoys detailed plastic modelling and display orientated builds.

Assembly experience and finished look

Hasegawa provides finely detailed surfaces and a realistic cockpit for modellers to assemble and customise. Panel lines and control surfaces are well represented, giving scope for subtle painting techniques and weathering. Once completed the model makes a credible addition to a modern military display.

Programme history and operational context

Produced through collaboration with the United States, the Mitsubishi F-2B blends international design elements with specific Japanese requirements. Its operational use in the J.A.S.D.F. emphasises modern defence capabilities. Model builders can enjoy recreating both its structural form and service markings with this kit.
