The multirole F-22 Raptor fighter is one of the most advanced fifth-generation combat aircraft in the world, operated by the United States Air Force (USAF). In service with the US Air Force since 2005, it continues to play a key role during exercises and real-world operations in the modern era. Thanks to stealth technology and advanced radar systems, it is virtually invisible to radar, making the F-22 Raptor one of the most recognizable symbols of contemporary US air power.

The Armory Models AW48314 set was created for experienced modelers who value a perfect final result. Accurately rendered treads, lettering, and rim details, together with the convincingly replicated effect of the aircraft's weight resting on the wheels, significantly increase model authenticity. The product is easy to fit to most popular 1/48 scale F-22 models available on the market (e.g., Academy, Hasegawa). It will perform equally well in both advanced and intermediate modelers’ workshops who wish to enhance the visual qualities of their model. We recommend this set to all contemporary aviation enthusiasts, diorama collectors, and anyone who expects an impressive, realistic appearance from their model.

Assembly difficulty: 2/5. Assembling the set is not particularly challenging but does require careful cutting and processing of resin parts. Painting the wheels for the best effect also requires some experience.
