Italeri 1/48 F-22 Raptor: Precision Scale Replica

The Italeri 0850 1/48 scale F-22 Raptor kit gives modellers the opportunity to reproduce a landmark modern fighter with close attention to stealthy shaping and aerodynamic detail. Known for its blend of low observable features, speed, and manoeuvrability, the F-22 has been a key asset in contemporary air operations.

Background and Operational Role

Conceived to succeed earlier air superiority types, the F-22 Raptor was built to dominate contested skies with next generation systems. Its capacity for sustained supersonic cruise without afterburner, plus integrated avionics and weapons carriage, contribute to a reduced radar signature and potent tactical flexibility.

Build Complexity and Kit Features

This Italeri kit is aimed at hobbyists who enjoy technical assembly and precise finishing. Builders will encounter fine surface details and parts that reward careful fitting and seam work, offering a satisfying experience for those who like to push their modelling skills.

Showcase and Collection Impact

Once assembled, the model makes a striking display piece due to its scale and accurate lines. It pairs well in a collection with other late 20th and early 21st century military types and invites conversations about stealth design and platform evolution.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Dimensions: 41 cm in length
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
Expect a moderate to advanced build. The kit includes small parts and fine details that benefit from prior modelling experience and basic tools like fine files, tweezers, and good adhesives.
Use acrylic or enamel paints matched to modern tactical grey schemes. Consider primer, pre-shading, and a satin or matt clear coat to reproduce the low observable finish accurately.
Yes, there are aftermarket decals and resin detail sets from third party suppliers that improve cockpit detail and surface fidelity, but check compatibility with the Italeri 0850 kit before buying.
