Responsibility details are not available.
This plastic kit from the Japanese manufacturer Fujimi presents the two-seat supersonic trainer Mitsubishi T-2 in the role for which it was primarily designed — the advanced training of future JASDF fighter pilots. The model in the popular 1:48 scale will add to a collection of Japanese postwar hardware a machine that stood at the beginning of independent Japanese supersonic aviation.
The Mitsubishi T-2 was created at the turn of the 1960s and 1970s as the first supersonic aircraft designed in Japan. It first flew in 1971 and from 1975 served with the Japan Air Self-Defense Force as an advanced trainer on which pilots moved from subsonic trainers to supersonic fighters. Its pair of license-built Adour turbofan engines was matched by a slender aerodynamic layout with a markedly swept wing. The single-seat Mitsubishi F-1 support aircraft later grew out of the T-2 airframe.
Bond the parts with a thin cement for plastic and sand the seams with fine abrasive paper before painting. The training versions of the T-2 wore bold, highly visible finishes — masking tape will help with the sharp color transitions. Paint the cockpit with its two seats before closing the fuselage, and we recommend dipping the clear canopy in a gloss acrylic varnish before gluing for greater clarity. Fix the decals with a coat of varnish at the end.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
