The Mitsubishi F-2A/B is a modern Japanese multirole fighter developed on the basis of the American F-16 Fighting Falcon. It has been in service with the Japan Air Self-Defense Force since the early 21st century, where it performs interception and air support missions. This aircraft was designed considering Japan’s unique requirements, with production starting in the early 2000s. The F-2A (single-seat) and F-2B (two-seat) versions feature a modified fuselage, upgraded avionics, and a distinctive blue-toned camouflage—making accurate masking a challenging task for modelers.

The Montex SM72144 set allows you to quickly and precisely cover areas that should remain unpainted when applying camouflage or painting the canopy glazing. The masks are made from an ultra-thin yet durable self-adhesive foil that leaves no glue residue and adheres perfectly to the model surface—whether on transparent parts or other details.

The set is recommended for both intermediate and advanced modelers, who expect flawless finishing and faithful detail replication. It is an essential aid for achieving impressive canopies and camouflage, significantly reducing working time while improving the final effect’s quality.

• Difficulty level: 2/5 – also user-friendly for less experienced modelers
• Included: full set of masks for canopy and camouflage elements (precisely cut for the Hasegawa kit)

We highly recommend Montex SM72144 to every aviation modeling enthusiast looking for a quick, effective, and precise method to enhance the realism of their 1:72 Mitsubishi F-2 models!
