Finished F 22A

Post by wjkunert »

I finally finished my Hasegawa !/48 F 22A. I photographed is next to a F 15C and F 35A. All are 1/48 scale so you can see it's about the same size as a F 15. Pretty large bird. I'll take some more pictures of it later and post in the appropriate forum

Nice and very good idea to compare sizewise this still pretty uncommon fighter with something more common !

Nice collection! I think that it needs an F-16 to be truly complete.

Very nice!! :shoutout:

I still think that an A-10 and a F-15E would really complete the group.

I'll take that under consideration. Both are very effective aircraft, especially considering their age. USAF wants to retire the A 10 but there is ne replacement and the idea of using the F 35 as a tank killer is a bit under using a very expensive aircraft. If the F 15, F 16, and A 10 were people they would all have very gray hair.
