    This is the F-2A “ADTW” 13-8514 JASDF 2017 (w/ASM-3 x 2) in 1:72 scale by Hobby Master.The F-2A “ADTW” 13-8514 of the Air Development and Test Wing in 2017 represents one of the most advanced test platforms within the Japan Air Self-Defense Force modernization program. Based on the indigenous Mitsubishi F-2, itself a heavily modified derivative of the F-16, this airframe was used for weapons integration and evaluation work, including trials with the ASM-3. The ASM-3’s addition marked a significant leap in Japan’s maritime strike capability, providing a high-speed, sea-skimming missile designed to engage modern naval targets at extended range. Aircraft 13-8514, carrying two ASM-3 rounds during testing, played a key role in validating aerodynamic compatibility, launch performance, and systems integration—helping refine Japan’s next-generation anti-ship warfare doctrine in response to evolving regional threats.Hobby Master has earned a reputation as one of the top-tier brands for die-cast aircraft due to its meticulous attention to detail, durable metal build, and rich historical accuracy. Collectors often praise their models for realistic panel lines, pad‑printed placards, functional features like removable canopies and landing gear, and authentic detachable ordnance—all hallmarks of their popular Air Power Series. Hobbyists consider Hobby Master “top‑notch,” ideal for collectors seeking museum‑grade realism and durable craftsmanship
