1/48 Mitsubishi F-2B "21Sq 40th Anniversary Detail Up Version"
While I'm waiting for masks for a particular WW2 Axis bomber kit to be restocked, it's time I jump on another kit. This time a JASDF 'Viper' (cuz it looks like a F-16 Viper) - the Mitsubishi F-2B.
I will be jumping on thus one very soon. The kit:

Interesting. Based no the "Agile Falcon" which we didn't buy. Be interesting to see side by side with an F-16B
Thanks,
John

Worked on it a bit last night. No bench time tonight and tomorrow. Lower back has been flaring up on me again. Can’t get comfortable sleeping. Hopefully at some point this weekend after a few Honey to-dos gets done.
