Lockheed Martin F-35 (A, C) Lightning II Exhaust Nozzle for Tamiya kit Scale 1:48 ResKit RSU48-0261 for Aircraft Model Kit

Aftermarket resin accessory for aircraft scale model kits designed to reproduce the exhaust nozzle used on the Lockheed Martin F-35A and F-35C Lightning II.

This component supports accurate 1/48 scale aircraft model builds by refining the distinctive nozzle structure at the rear of the aircraft, an area that remains highly visible on finished models.

The exhaust section of the F-35 features a complex petal arrangement and internal depth that strongly influences the appearance of the aircraft’s rear fuselage. Replacing simplified kit parts with a dedicated aftermarket nozzle helps improve the geometry and structural definition of this section.

For modelers: test-fit the nozzle inside the fuselage opening before painting to confirm proper alignment. Apply thin layers of paint and metallic finishes to preserve the fine detail of the nozzle petals.
