1990s

In this last decade of the 20th Century, the thinking of military experts turned toward increasingly exotic weapons systems.  Stealth technology, composite construction materials and remote-controlled weapons platforms all played key roles in the futuristic aircraft then being imagined.

Unfortunately, no mainstream model kit manufacturer kitted any of the conceptual aircraft designs being proposed during this period.  Instead, it was up to the limited-run "garage kit" companies to fill the void.
