I got this kit some 30 years ago as a gift to a subscription on "Airplane - Aviation Encyclopedia". It was about the same time some F-117's were deployed to Gilze-Rijen AFB in the Netherlands for excercise Coronet Havoc.
This was of course a big sensation, especially for the Dutch airplane spotters.
So, I reckoned that it's about time to build this kit.
