About product

Saab JAS-39A Gripen 1:48 — Italeri

An injection-molded plastic kit of the Swedish multi-role fighter Saab JAS-39 Gripen in the single-seat A version, 1:48 scale, from Italeri. The kit offers a detailed cockpit, a clear canopy, well-worked landing gear with its bays and air-to-air and air-to-ground stores.

The real subject

The Saab JAS-39 Gripen is a Swedish single-engine multi-role fighter of canard layout, that is with a forward horizontal foreplane and a delta wing. The abbreviation JAS denotes the three roles of the machine: fighter (Jakt), attack (Attack) and reconnaissance (Spaning). The single-seat A version is the basic combat variant introduced with the Swedish Air Force in the 1990s. The Gripen was designed as a light, agile aircraft that is undemanding in service and able to operate even from road bases.

Building and painting tips

Separate the parts with a sharp knife and glue them with thin liquid cement for plastic. Mask the cockpit and the clear canopy carefully before painting; on this type the canopy can be shown in the open position. Apply a primer and spray the paint with an airbrush in thin coats. You bring the Swedish gray finish to life with a fine panel wash. Paint the stores and the tanks separately and fit them only once the base coat is finished.

Who the model is for

  • For enthusiasts of modern European military aviation
  • For modelers who like the canard layout with a delta wing
  • For collectors of Gripen fighters in 1:48 scale

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
