Model:-

This is my 23rd article to ARC, this is a very detailed model, the wings can be folded or kept down in a flying style, so can the arrestor hook used to land on carriers be kept up or down.  For painting the model I used  Polly Scale Acrylic Paint "US Sea Blue" this model was finished in only 23 days.

I hope you like my model.
