It looks like a nice kit that's fairly simple to build. It will be built oob, which however does include cutting lots of bits off and replacing with the included resin bits, like flaps, rudder, entire tail planes, intake, guns, ammo belts etc.
The jig is to give a seamless intake at the front, replacing the cut off bits with a resin duct with no seams.
I like these Hasegawa detail up kits. They are high quality.
The decals got wet somewhere along the way, but seem to be ok.
I'm going to have a go at painting a natural metal finish. Never done that before.
Some pics.
