F-111D/E Aardvark, 1/48 - Hobby Boss 80350

Planned for September 2026, the F-111D/E Aardvark scale model Hobby Boss 80350 reproduces at 1/48 scale one of the most distinctive American tactical aircraft of the Cold War era.

The General Dynamics F-111 Aardvark is distinguished by its variable-geometry wing, designed to adjust the wing sweep angle across different phases of flight. This twin-engine aircraft was used by the US Air Force for all-weather strike missions and low-altitude penetration. The F-111D and F-111E versions belong to this family of aircraft with immediately recognizable lines.

This Hobby Boss reference is a plastic model kit to assemble. It includes 541 parts. Once built, the model measures 483.6 mm in length with a wingspan of 400 mm. At 1/48 scale, it offers a large, detailed replica, particularly well suited for a detailed build and for display in a collection or on a diorama.

Careful preparation of the parts, the use of glue suitable for plastic, and the application of a primer before painting help achieve a crisp finish. The landing gear, metal areas, structural panel lines, and weathering effects then allow you to customize this Aardvark presentation according to the chosen scheme.
