Build Your Own Miniature F135 Turbofan Engine
This DIY metal model kit recreates the F135 turbofan engine, the powerhouse behind the F-35 Lightning II and B-21 Raider. Developed by Pratt & Whitney and Rolls-Royce, this engine represents a pinnacle of Western aerospace engineering. With over 600 precision parts, this kit offers an immersive assembly experience that reveals the inner workings of a real turbofan.
Assembling this model takes you through each major section: the fan, core engine, low-pressure turbine, afterburner, exhaust nozzle, and accessory gearbox. Once built, the motorized mechanism simulates engine rotation, while the open-frame design lets you observe every moving part in action. It’s a hands-on way to explore jet propulsion technology.
Crafted from aluminum alloy and stainless steel, the kit features CNC-machined parts with a sandblasted and anodized finish for durability and realism. The included display stand and control panel add to the experience, making it a dynamic exhibit for any space.
