Hi! I'm Jonno and this is my first post on eurobricks. I've read plenty of reviews and love the forum but have never posted until now.
I absolutely love this set and decided it needed a few slight changes.
I made a few mods to the set and found some suitable pilots too! (A-wing flight suits and old x168 helmet with black visors)
I've also changed the back from a single afterburner like an F-35 to having twin engines like an F-22.
The rear landing gear is smaller and is now concealed with hinged covers during flight.
The engine bay has added hoses and dials.
Obviously the colour scheme has changed and a few minor other changes to the appearance of the jet have been made.
A U.S flag has been added to the tail and a tail number added on the other side.

Closer to the F-22 than before...

I went ahead and changed the rear wheels to a smaller set and put hinged covers on!
