Italeri 1457 - 1/72 EF-2000 Typhoon R.A.F. Service: Benchside notes

The Italeri 1/72 model of the Eurofighter EF-2000 Typhoon recreates one of the most capable European fighters. Originating from a cooperative project in the late 1980s, the Typhoon focuses on air superiority and high maneuverability. Its canard-delta configuration plus twin EuroJet EJ200 engines provide the airframe with the speed and responsiveness seen in service.

Model makers will find this kit highlights the Typhoon's modern features, including its fly-by-wire flight controls which aid agility in the real aircraft. The Royal Air Force and other European operators use the type across several squadrons, and this kit makes a tidy, scale-accurate RAF example for display cases or dioramas.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Polystyrene components
  • Assembly: Requires glue for assembly
  • Paint: Not supplied
  • Dimensions: Scale-correct length and wingspan
The kit focuses on the airframe and standard service markings; it does not include extensive alternative weapon bays, though basic external stores may be represented.
Many 1/72 aftermarket accessories are compatible, but check part lists for fit notes as some items may need minor trimming for a perfect match.
Cockpit detail is simplified for 1/72 scale but includes key features; modders seeking extra fidelity can add aftermarket decals or photo-etch sets.
Dry-fit parts first, use fine fillers sparingly, and sand progressively. Canards benefit from alignment jigs or a small clamp while glue cures.
