1/144 Plastic D-4 Model Kit Plaaf Chengdu and 48 similar items

The PLAAF Chengdu J-10 "Vigorous Dragon" first flew in 1998, and represented a great step forward for China's air arm. YouTube has a build review video by Quick Models that you should watch! FYI, THE J-11 IS A RUSSIAN SUCHOI SU-27 BUILT UNDER LICENSE. This item is manufactured by "D-4" as a "puzzle model" and is designed, we suppose, to be put together and taken apart over and over? But being the only model of this aircraft we have ever seen in 1/144 scale, we offer it as a serious scale model to be built by skilled hobbyists who have the tools and materials to give it justice. We recommend you acquire some Squadron Putty or equivalent. One tube will last for years for a busy model kit builder. The kit is very nicely made and includes a stand. Another interesting feature is that the landing gear parts are molded in CLEAR plastic which we've never seen before, and serves to enhance the appearance of the model on its stand. Of course you can paint the landing gear if you wish. Sadly, at this time, it does not include decals, but we are ordering some Chinese decals from Y-Kraft in Japan, and we will have them soon. If they are not here when you buy this kit, we will mail them to you when they arrive, free of charge. Note: This kit is not in it's original box, it come bagged with the "kit box art"
