Arrives safe — or we replace it free

Every aircraft ships double-boxed and foam-cradled so the airframe travels protected. If anything arrives damaged in transit, we replace it free — just email crew@ironsquadron.com within 30 days of delivery.

Every fleet starts with a first airframe. This is the F-35's.

This 1:72 diecast wears the markings of AF-01 — among the very first production F-35As to reach the U.S. Air Force.

The Aircraft

The F-35A is the conventional-takeoff version of the most widely-fielded fifth-generation fighter in the world: stealthy, sensor-fused, and built to share what it sees with everything around it.

The Story

AF-01 marks the start of the operational Lightning II era. We build this model to honor the engineers, pilots, and maintainers who got the jet to the line.

The Model

  • Scale: 1:72 — sharp, detailed desk size
  • Diecast metal body, pre-built and pre-painted
  • Includes display stand
  • Recommended age 14+ — a collector's display piece, not a toy

Why Collectors Want It

A clean, early-production Lightning II with a real place in the program's history — a sharp anchor for a modern-jet collection.

Is it pre-built and pre-painted?

Yes — every model arrives fully assembled and hand-painted. No kit, no glue, no assembly. Lift it out of the box and set it on the shelf.

We ship from the US in 1–2 business days, with delivery in 7–14 business days. Shipping is free on every order.
What if it arrives damaged?

We'll make it right. Items damaged in transit are replaced free — just email crew@ironsquadron.com within 30 days of delivery.
Is this a toy?

It's a collector's display piece, not a toy — solid diecast metal, recommended for ages 14+. Built to be displayed, not played with.
