Let me start by saying this model is incredibly detailed, and accurate. It contains the relevant parts to create either a SR-71A or SR-71B (Trainer model with raised rear cockpit) and the NASA version including the drone. So plenty of scope to do whatever you need.
One thing to note is that if you are used to creating 1/72 scale fighter planes you will now be working with a model roughly twice the size. As the SR-71A was over 100ft long, and most fighters average 55ft in length...you get the idea.
This model's actually formed from black plastic rather than the usual grey, but PLEASE do yourself a favour and give it a matte black coat from a spray, or ideally multiple coats for consistency. A nice touch is that the objective cameras underneath the SR-71 are clear plastic giving it that 3 dimensional feel. The cockpit is by far the most finnicky part of the build, as I found the chairs to be slightly too high to fit under the canopy, so I shaved approximately 2 mm off them with a knife.
The transfers are easy to do (apart from the red lines across the top wing area (which was a b****** hehe) but it looks incredible when completed.
The model is very high quality, and looks great! I've since bought another one as my friend liked it so much he asked me to make one for him!

I brought this for a present. When the product was opened it was of good quality and good value for money. Has not started being built yet but lots of fun to be had
