Product Description
Introducing a completely new 1/72 scale Lockheed Hopeless diamond injection plastic kit from Micromill of Ukraine.
Hopeless Diamond is a stealth aircraft proposed by the American Lockheed in the 1970s.
At the time, DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) had signed contracts with five American aircraft manufacturers to research stealth fighter jets, and Lockheed's development division, Skunk Works, responded by proposing an aircraft made up of polygonal, angular shapes that would reflect radar only in specific directions.
Skunk Works believed that the stealth-focused diamond-shaped aircraft would not provide sufficient flight capability, and gave the aircraft the pessimistic nickname "Hopeless Diamond."
However, when the Have Blue prototype was produced, an evolution of the aircraft's design, further improvements were made to it, resulting in the F-117 Nighthawk, the first operational stealth fighter in history.
The kit we are introducing this time is a three-dimensional model based on the concept of "What if Hopeless Diamond really flew into the sky?"
The kit comes with etched parts, paint mask stickers and one US Air Force decal.
Please take this opportunity to consider it.
