About product

The nozzle of the F-35B deflected for a short takeoff

A short takeoff from a limited runway or from the ramp of an amphibious ship is the discipline for which the B version of the Lightning II came about at all. The Reskit set captures the exhaust exactly in the position it takes during such a run, when it already points obliquely downward while the machine is still moving forward.

How a short takeoff proceeds

On the B version the rear exhaust is turned by an articulated mechanism with three oblique bearings. During the takeoff run it deflects only partially, while the lift fan behind the cockpit adds thrust at the nose and the doors above it are open. The aircraft thus gathers speed and lightens itself at the same time, which lets it lift off after a few tens of meters. It is precisely in this intermediate position that the machine is most often seen in shots from a deck.

Painting and fitting

The inside deserves metallic shades with a hint of heat discoloration and fine wear on the edges of the petals. The part is seated into the tail of the fuselage, so it is sensible to try the fit dry before the two halves are glued together. A flowing dark shade will then bring out the division of the individual segments.

Who to recommend it to

  • builders of a model in a dynamic position during the takeoff run
  • dioramas of a ship deck with a ski jump at the bow
  • modelers who want to set their piece apart from a build out of the basic mold
  • display cases whose theme is the short takeoff and the vertical landing

The set settles only the exhaust part; the rest of the propulsion and the airframe are not in it.

FAQ

In a short takeoff the exhaust is deflected only partially, because the aircraft is still gathering speed. In a vertical landing it points fully downward.

No, each position is a separate set. It therefore has to be chosen according to the scene intended.

Thin layers of translucent shades applied with an airbrush prove themselves, with tuning by dry rubbing with a metallic pigment.

The extent of the package is limited to the exhaust part; the fan is not stated as part of it.
