Hasegawa 00531 1/72 F-117A Nighthawk

The F-117, secretly developed by the U.S. Air Force, is an aircraft with the ability to make infrared and radar detection difficult. Its development dates back to the stealth research aircraft "Have Blue" that first flew in 1977 .

The two research aircraft were flight tested in strict secrecy with the aim of putting them into practical use. As a result, the Air Force ordered a full-scale development aircraft in November 1978, and deliveries of the production F-117A began in 1982.

All the details you need to make a great kit of this plane are here. The cockpit can be completed with the canopy in the open or closed position. Comes with markings for the CO's aircraft of the 49th Fighter Wing, as well as the 37th Tactical Fighter Wing. Beautiful box art by Shigeo Koike.
