Kitty Hawk F2H-2 Banshee
FineScale Modeler reviews the 1/48 scale plastic model aircraft kit Kitty Hawk’s detailed F2H-2 includes optional noses to build either a fighter or photo reconnaissance Banshee, plus a terrific cockpit. The soft plastic is delicate; I broke several small parts when removing them from the sprues and cleaning up the mold seams and flash.

Kitty Hawk 1/32 scale F-86D Dog Sabre
FineScale Modeler reviews the 1/32 scale plastic aircraft model kit. Kitty Hawk’s big F-86D Sabre Dog kit looks great just sitting in the box. You get seven sprues of light gray plastic and one in clear, as well as a photoetched-metal fret with seat belts.

Kitty Hawk 1/48 scale F9F-8/-8P Cougar
FineScale Modeler reviews the Kitty Hawk 1/48 scale F9F-8/-8P Cougar scale plastic aircraft model.

Molded in medium gray plastic, the kit features finely engraved panel lines and rivet detail. You get a fret of photoetched-metal…

Kitty Hawk’s 1/48 scale Saab JAS 39A/C Gripen plastic model kit consists of almost 300 parts molded in gray styrene on 10 sprues, three of which are for ordnance. I’m amazed by how much is packed into the small box.

This 1/48 scale F-35B, only the second kit from a new model company, Kitty Hawk, is a welcome release. Opening the box reveals 208 pieces, all of which (except the six clear parts) are molded in a dark gray, oily, soft yet brittle plastic that likes to tear as you remove it from the sprue.…
