Eurofighter Typhoon Starter Kit: Maximum power in a compact format
The Eurofighter Typhoon is the undisputed spearhead of European air defence. A jet that flies at Mach 2.0+ and is technologically superior to all others. With this starter kit, you can bring home this high-performance, multi-purpose combat aircraft in a fascinating scale model. What’s special: You don’t have to worry about the accessories. The matching base colours, a brush and the special model-building glue are already included in the pack. Unpack and start building one of the most modern jets in the world.
Why this small set is so big
• A complete, hassle-free package: Aqua Color paints, brushes and Contacta glue are included – perfect for beginners or as a quick project for professionals.
• Finest details: Despite the compact 1:144 scale, the model impresses with recessed sheet metal joints that are in no way inferior to the original.
• Heavily armed: The set boasts an extensive arsenal: 4x METEOR, 4x AMRAAM, 2x IRIS-T and 2x ASRAAM guided missiles, as well as external fuel tanks, are included.
• A small challenge: With a difficulty level of 4 and 63 parts in a length of just 11 cm, this model requires a steady hand and offers real modelling fun.
• International choice: Thanks to the superb decals, you can choose between a German Air Force (JG 74 “Mölders”) version or a British Royal Air Force version.
The 1:144 scale is in a class of its own. It allows you to display an entire fleet in a small space, but requires a great deal of care when building it. You’ll be amazed at how detailed the cockpit, the undercarriage and, above all, the external loads are. This starter kit proves that size isn’t everything – it’s the details that make the difference. Whether as a gift for aviation enthusiasts or as an addition to your own collection: here you get pure modern technology.
