This training life is critical safety training that directly de-risks crash-on-deck scenarios.

Part-representation 1 shall accurately reflect the wingtip and nose height of 7.75ft from the ground and be made from 8mm thick steel sheet and beams. While the real F35B is 15.62m in length, 10.66m wide and 4.31m in height, a full wingtip width is not required and a scaled down version at 1:1.5 would be acceptable, while retaining the actual height is essential.
