Who makes the better, accurate, and most detailed 1/72 Scale YF-23 Black Widow II? Italeri, Testors, or Tamaiya[?][?] I’m planning on buying a model of the aircraft in both 1/48 scale and 1/72 scale but have been debating who makes the better kit!!!

Thanks, Erik

Also wanting to know who makes the best F-22 Raptor in both 1/72 scale and 1/48 scale[?]

The Italeri and Testors kits are of the same mold, essentially the same kit, so quality is roughly the same. Not familiar with the Tamiya kit, however I’m sure others around here are.

The Tamiya YF-23 is the Italeri kit reboxed for the Japanese market, so it seems all three are the exact same kit.

All 3 YF-23 kits in 1/72 scale are the same mould. I haven’t heard of a 1/48 scale YF-23 yet.

F-22: Italeri and Revell produce F-22 ( prototype ) kits in 1/48 scale ( same mould ).
Revell produces a 1/72 prototype Raptor. Italeri and Heller make YF-22 kits in 1/72 scale.

Hope this helps !!!

Cheers,

Jürgen
