Scale builder edition - Italeri 1355 - 1/72 EF-2000 Typhoon Single Seater Model Kit  [IT-1355S]

Overview of the Italeri 1/72 EF-2000 Typhoon Single Seater

This 1/72 Italeri kit recreates the EF-2000 Typhoon single seater with attention to the aircrafts canonical lines. The model highlights the canard-delta wing layout and the twin Eurojet EJ200 engines that contribute to the Typhoon's high speed capability up to Mach 2.

Development History and Role

The Eurofighter effort started in the late 1980s to deliver a modern multi-role fighter for partner nations. The Typhoon is known for its agility, aided by advanced fly-by-wire systems, and the single-seat form is intended for combat missions while two-seat versions serve training functions.

Modeling Features and Presentation

Model makers will find this Italeri kit well suited for accurate detailing and display. The super decal sheet allows builders to represent eight distinct schemes, and at a finished length of 22.2 cm the model fits well on crowded display cases or dioramas.
