Product Description

[Special Feature: The Stealth-The Genealogy of Invisible Airplanes-]
-[Invisible Airplane], it is no exaggeration to say that it is the eternal theme of military aircraft.
――In the military, the technology that makes it difficult to detect from sensors such as radar is called [stealth], but this became generally known as the plastic model of [F-19 Stealth] released in the mid-1980s. It was the information disclosure of [F-117] by the US Department of Defense, and the success of the aircraft in the Gulf War that broke out in 1991.
-Research on [Stealth] is said to have started during World War II, when radar began full-scale operation.
――It became full-scale during the Cold War after the war, and various types of aircraft based on research theory were born and disappeared.
――It is said that some of the aircraft that were completed through trial and error could not fly properly due to poor aerodynamic characteristics.
――After that, with the establishment of computer-controlled digital fly-by-wire technology, stable flight performance will be obtained, which will lead to the modern 5th generation jet fighter.
――In the airplane model special No. 38, we will make and compare [stealth aircraft] from the early days of stealth to the dawn, and from the maturity stage to the 5th generation jet fighter.
