About the Product
This is a model from the Platz/Italeri series, a collaboration between Platz and Italeri and sold in Japan.
This 1/48-scale kit recreates the EA-18G Growler, a current U.S. Navy electronic warfare aircraft. It's a plastic assembly kit with a finished length of 38.1 cm. Its impressive size and distinctive form are accurately recreated.
In addition to Italeri's easy-to-assemble parts configuration, Platz also provides a Japanese instruction manual, making this a kit that Japanese modelers can tackle with confidence. A masking sheet is also included as standard, making it easy to paint the canopy frame. The large tandem cockpit canopy allows for precise painting, enhancing the quality of the finish. The aircraft parts and components are efficiently constructed for ease of assembly and realism. The Japanese instruction manual ensures reliable assembly.
Markings are also selected from units familiar in Japan.
This kit includes markings for the VAQ-141 Shadow Hawks, an electronic warfare attack squadron based at Iwakuni Air Base. The decals are made by Cartograf, Italy. This kit is a must-have for Japanese modelers.
