1:144 Eurofighter Typhoon

Eurofighter Typhoon (1:144, Revell)

Injection-molded plastic kit of the European Eurofighter Typhoon multirole fighter in 1:144 scale from Revell. This modern machine with its delta wing and canards is one of the present-day European combat aircraft. The kit has a finely engraved surface and in the small scale it suits a collection of present-day fighters.

The real subject

The Eurofighter Typhoon is a twin-engine multirole fighter developed in cooperation between several European countries (Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy and Spain). It combines a delta wing with canards, which makes it exceptionally agile. It serves for air defense as well as for attacks on ground targets and is in service with a number of European and other air forces.

Building and painting tips

Glue the parts with thin cement for plastic; assemble and paint the small pylons, the external fuel tanks and the guided missiles separately. Glue the clear canopy with canopy glue so that it stays clear, and paint the cockpit before you close up the fuselage. Typhoons wear a gray camouflage of lower contrast - after the gloss clear coat and the decals, pick the panel lines out with a fine wash.
