The J35 Draken is a Swedish supersonic interceptor fighter designed by SAAB. It was used by the Swedish Air Force and also exported to countries such as Austria, Finland, and Denmark. Its service was mainly during the Cold War era, where it was responsible for the air defense of Sweden and its allied countries. The Hasegawa model accurately reflects this historical context and requires exceptional attention to detail during assembly and painting.

Masking the wheel bays while painting an aircraft model is a crucial step for achieving a realistic replica appearance. By using Omask 74840, you significantly minimize the risk of paint staining the carefully crafted internal details, resulting in higher fidelity and a professional finish.
