Fighter Jet Assault (Qiji 1731-1)

About this set

KEEPPLEY 1731-1 Fighter Assault is part of the Battlefield series, marked 6+ on the box with a 2/5 difficulty rating and a 158-piece count. The finished model is a yellow, grey and black biplane-style military aircraft with a propeller, stacked double-wing structure, landing wheels, twin-barrel cannons, a tail fin and a minifigure cockpit. The box highlights TACTICAL ESPIONAGE ACTION COMBAT ZONE FORCE and lists two minifigures. Build the fuselage and cockpit first, then align and press the two wings together, and save the propeller and wheels for last so nothing gets knocked off mid-build; sorting the small cannon and tail parts by color speeds things up. With a short part count and few steps, it suits kids aged 6 and up as a first military build, and the wing and cannon assembly makes a neat little display piece or a support aircraft for a minifigure scene.
