This is the F-22 "Splinter Camouflage" USAF (fictitious scheme) in 1:72 scale by Hobby Master.
The F-22 Raptor in a “Splinter Camouflage” livery—though a fictitious scheme—represents a bold fusion of fifth-generation stealth with Cold War-era aggressor aesthetics. This conceptual paint job features angular, high-contrast patterns reminiscent of Soviet-style camouflage, designed not for stealth but to visually disrupt and intimidate in air combat training scenarios. What sets this version apart from its operational gray counterparts is its hypothetical role as an elite aggressor platform, blending the F-22’s unmatched low observability, supercruise capability, and sensor fusion with a visually striking presence that redefines the look of adversary training in advanced aerial warfare. It's an imaginative twist that highlights how form can meet function—even in the realm of speculative design.
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.
