Eli Raphael Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Does the kit needs aftermarket items? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dustiepal Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I have a resin seat and exhaust nozzle set. I also have decals for the Ram tape from Isra Decals. The kit is pretty nice out of the box. There are also an intake set from 2Mikes that looks good and there are different sets of resin wheels. There is lots of photo etch as well but I don't think it is worth the money. Do a search on eBay for stuff, or Hannants. Hobbyeasy is another good source to do a search. Â Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Meng's F-35A is very nice kit and you can build good model out of box. But there is always something you can add or exchange to gain better look of the model. I have bought for this F-35A few aftermarkets: beautiful exhaust nozzle from KA-Models, ejection seat from Kasl Hobby, painting masks from Galaxy Models, PEs from Eduard, there are coming resin wheels from Res/Kit. You can use it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scotthldr Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 (edited) I've noticed that on later built a/c that the RAM tape isn't as obvious as on the earlier aircraft. Here's a link to a recently delivered Vermont ANG a/c and there's no colour difference between the tape and surrounding areas. Hope it's ok to post the link if not I'll remove it.

Â +1 on all that. Got the same, all except the ejection seat and, of course, the wheels. KA-Models' exhausts are beautiful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
