It was designed primarily as an air superiority fighter, but has additional capabilities that include ground attack, electronic warfare, and signals intelligence. Review: I completed the Hasegawa F-22 challenge! - I've posted pics of my finished model... I built this "box stock", but still, this is super detailed model - even though it did not include any photo etched parts 1) Each landing gear bay consists of 20+ parts - gear, doors, struts, interior parts, etc. 2) Each missile fin gets a "NO LIFT" decal. 3) Fit and finish are SUPERB, very little putty needed. 4) Took 3 weeks to complete. In comparison, Revell F-15 only took me 1 week to complete. 5) I did the wash in the landing and missile bays, but didn't add weathering, yet. I just wanted to be done for now. 6) But I wish they would have made the 20mm cannon doors to be open or closed. Painting: For the edges - Light Ghost Gray FS36375 (enamel) - added no sheen. - Let it dry THOROUGHLY for a couple of days, masked the edges using low tack masking tape. - If you want the edge color to match some of the decals - i.e. between the engines, mix Light Ghost Gray with Radome Tan and flat white - I had to do this because part of the decal between the engines came off a bit and had to fix it. It's really hard to tell the difference between the fix and decal. Sheeny light gray - 5 parts Light Ghost Gray FS36375 (enamel) + 1 part 5-N Navy Blue USN (SG) (enamel) Sheeny dark gray - 1 part Light Ghost Gray FS36375 (enamel) + 3 part 5-N Navy Blue USN (SG) (enamel) - I printed the PDF of the paint instructions on to card stock. Increasing the print size until it matched the model, then cut out the darker gray areas and used it as a template so I can achieve the soft edges. To add the "sheen" - 5 parts Testors Airbrush Paint, Clear Gloss (Acrylic) + 1 part Parma Faspearl Silver (acrylic) + 3 parts thinner. Airbrushed 3 thin coats. After the Gloss, removed the masking off the edges, applied the decals using Solvaset, airbrushed 3 thin coats of Testors Airbrush Paint, Clear Matte (acrylic). Hasegawa water slide decals tend to be fickle. When using very warm water, takes about 15 seconds of submerging. Luke warm water, it takes 20+ seconds. Room temp water, it's nearly impossible to slide. All in all, it was a great model, as detailed as it was, it wasn't that frustrating to build, just took a lot of patience. End result was worth it! Review: The best F-22 Raptor model out! - I found this model to be the best and most detailed model I have ever built. It is true quality, having most pieces fit perfectly! Some of the decals are (like most) not the best. You must be very careful with them and use correctly. Also the fuselage will sometimes be barely warped. You can possibly fix this by trying to bend it back. Other than that NOTHING to take away the five stars. It is naturally shiny and streamlined with immense detail to every part. I would recommend this to a experienced modeler or one who can take almost up to 400 parts that can be very small. The worst part of the construction for me was the landing gears. There is almost a ridiculously weak way of how they are built. Don't let this stop you from trying though, There is multiple different pieces that allow it to be closed or open even after you may have failed to build it. This model says to mix paint to the perfect color. I found that simple Ace spray paint and Testors enamel works best just the way it is. I think that this is a AWESOME model and love it. All the models pieces fit perfectly with each other. Even with 368 pieces you can still easily find the correct one to use. The directions can be difficult at times but overall are easy to use. It is naturally shiny so if you desire a even more shiny look then use gloss colors. The cockpit is extremely detailed like the rest of the model. You even have a choice of which pilot helmet may be worn by the pilot. This kit comes with it all Two AIM-9 Sidewinders and 6 Aim-120 missiles. cool product to buy! ## Features - Hasegawa F-22 Raptor "Stealth Fighter" USAF Plastic Model Kit - 1/48 Scale ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0038JCAKI | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Art Craft Kit Type | Plastic Model Kit | | Brand | Hasegawa | | Brand Name | Hasegawa | | Color | black | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 152 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04967834072459 | | Item Dimensions | 16.63 x 10.75 x 3.88 inches | | Item Weight | 0.8 Kilograms | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 16.63 x 10.75 x 3.88 inches | | Manufacturer | United Model, Inc. | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Name | F-22 Raptor | | Number of Pieces | 368 | | Scale | 1:48 | | Seasons | All Seasons | | Size | 0.5 Liters | | Subject Character | F-22 | | Theme | Military | | UPC | 798256818332 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Fluid Ounces | | Warranty Description | Upon Request | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Hasegawa - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Color:** Black - **Theme:** Military - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 16.63 x 10.75 x 3.88 inches ## Images ![Hasegawa 1/48 F-22 Raptor USAF - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Jic81NeFL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can this fly?** A: It can fly, build it and throw it up in the air as hard as you can. It will fly for several seconds and then fall to the ground. At that point it will most likely break into a few pieces. **Q: what paint color is needed** A: Jake, Your non-standard English notwithstanding, the following is submitted. By now you have noticed the fuselage colors are blended colors. I have cross-referenced those, and most of the other colors, to Humbrol (UK) colors. They are as follows: Leading Edges & radome - 127, Base color - 126 and the Pattern color - 125. You can find these cross-reference charts on-line and Fed Std colors as well. **Q: does the model include photo etched parts?** A: Some of the early releases of this kit, that were released in Asia and Europe had a photo-etched fret included, most do not however. Hasegawa has since made the P.E. set available for sale separately...it consists primarily of the seat belts, shoulder harnesses and some weapons bay details. The kit is very well detailed, and really doesn't need any after-market parts, however for AMS super-detailers, various companies have resin and P.E. cockpits, exhaust nozzles & burner cans, landing gear bays etc. If that is your thing, then check out the offerings produced by Aires, Eduard, Wolfpack and Cross Delta. **Q: The dimension produkt how long for centimeter** A: This 1/4" kit is 394mm long with a 282mm wingspan. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I completed the Hasegawa F-22 challenge! *by O***E on April 24, 2014* I've posted pics of my finished model...

This particular kit is brutally detailed. There are a ton of tiny and highly accurate pieces, particularly in the weapon bays. For some this is a plus, as it was for me. But for those who just want to represent the F-22 Raptor in a collection, realize you're making a commitment in building this kit. That all being said, I don't think I could have gotten a better F-22 kit on the market. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hasegawa 1/48 F-22 Raptor USAF - Cement Glue Value Pack Testors 2-7/8 fl oz tubes - Rustark 9Pcs Gundam Model Tools Kit Hobby Building, Repairing and Fixing Set for Kids --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/2009922-hasegawa-1-48-f-22-raptor-usaf](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/2009922-hasegawa-1-48-f-22-raptor-usaf) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
