Tamiya's model kits of the A and B variants have proven to be model fan favorites since their introduction in 2022 and 2023, respectively. They now complete the variant journey with this model assembly kit which recreates the F-35C.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the F-35C\u003cbr\u003eThe F-35C is a carrier-based variant designed for catapult-assisted take-off, barrier arrested recovery operations from aircraft carriers. Compared to the F-35A, the F-35C features larger wings with foldable wingtip sections, larger control surfaces for improved low-speed control, stronger landing gear for the stresses of carrier arrested landings, a twin-wheel nose gear, and a stronger tailhook for use with carrier arrestor cables. The larger wing area allows for decreased landing speed while increasing both range and payload.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cdetails open=\"\"\u003e\u003csummary\u003e\u003cb\u003eRequired to Complete:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAssembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cdetails open=\"\"\u003e\u003csummary\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFuselage parts are newly molded excluding canopy and weapons bay doors parts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine recreations of Radar Absorbent Material (RAM) are molded into fuselage surfaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChoose parts to recreate: Deployed or folded wingtips (Parts can be interchanged after assembly.) \/ Deployed or stowed air fuel probe on the right side of nose \/ Open or closed arresting hook door \/ Open or closed canopy (Parts can be interchanged after assembly.) \/ Open or close weapons bay doors. \/ Deployed or stowed boarding ladder.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeading-edge and trailing-edge control surfaces are depicted down.
