About product

1:72 F-4EJ Phantom II, Old Fashion, a Hasegawa Kit

This injection-molded plastic kit from the Japanese brand Hasegawa in 1:72 scale represents the F-4EJ, the Japanese license-built version of the two-seat twin-engine Phantom II. It is a special package designated Old Fashion, that is an edition built around one particular color scheme.

The real subject

The Phantom II is a two-seat twin-engine aircraft of the turn of the 1950s and 1960s, whose airframe is marked out by upswept wingtips, an anhedral horizontal tail and a pair of powerful jet engines. The Japanese F-4EJ version was built under license and differed from the American F-4E in equipment adapted to home service. This designation belongs to the machine in its original form, that is before the later modernization of the electronics that the version with the suffix Kai carried. The type served with the Japan Air Self-Defense Force for several decades and is among the longest-operated machines of its generation.

Building and painting tips

The two-seat cockpit is clearly in view on the Phantom, so it pays to finish it carefully and before the fuselage is glued together. The classic places for fine-tuning on this type are the air intakes and the joint between the rear fuselage and the engine nacelles, where filling and sanding tend to be needed. The exhaust nozzles have a metallic look of a different color; they look best shaded with several metallic shades rather than one. Special color schemes are sprayed over an even primer, so that the color comes out cleanly. Spray a gloss varnish before the decals, and once it has dried go over it with a matte or semi-gloss one, according to the look you want.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of jet aircraft of the older generation in 1:72 scale.
  • Modelers who collect Japanese forms of well-known types.
  • Builders with experience of filling joints and spraying with an airbrush.

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

FAQ

The F-4EJ is the original Japanese version built under license. The designation Kai belongs to the later modernization with changed onboard electronics, so these are two different states of the same type.

It is the designation of a particular package and of the color scheme the edition is built around. You will find the range of decal options on the packaging.

Most often at the air intakes and at the joint between the rear fuselage and the engine nacelles. It pays to try the parts dry first.

With basic experience yes, but reckon on filling and sanding the joints. For a very first model we would choose something simpler.
