I built Meng's Ford F-350 pickup, it went together beautifully; same results with their F-35A so far. The weapons bays and landing gear wells snapped right into position during assembly. The intake assembly is simply amazing, no seams at all. The fuselage looks great, more details on that once the glue cures later and the tape is removed.

Here is a testimony showing the tolerances on part fit--

The vertical tails do not have any glue on them, being held in place by the airframe. 

Unfortunately the wing to fuselage seam is going to require some extra attention, holy gap! The lower are barely noticeable thankfully.

I decided to paint all the SDBs in shades of green instead of Light Ghost Gray FS36375 to provide some contrast with the airframe.   I painted the wingtip rail for the AIM-9Xs Gunship Gray FS36118.
