AIRCRAFT KITS (367)

Significant in the history of aerial warfare, the Fokker Eindecker was the first purpose-built First World War German fighter aircraft and the first to be fitted with gun synchronisation gear. This gear allowed the pilot to shoot through the arc of the propeller and in his line of sight. Once introduced, it took a withering toll on Allied aircraft.

The J2M Raiden (Allied reporting name "Jack") was developed by the Japanese Navy in WWII as a land-based interceptor. It began to reach units from September 1944 and they were used to intercept B-29 bombers which were attacking Japan. This kit accurately depicts the J2M3 variant and allows modellers to assemble either deployed or retracted landing gear. Parts for a drop tank and two pilot figures, as well as three marking options, including a 302nd Kokutai aircraft, are included.

The second of America's great four-engined heavy bombers of the Second World War, the Consolidated B-24 Liberator actually began development after the Army Air Corps approached the company to build B-17 Flying Fortresses. Unimpressed at the prospect, Consolidated proposed that they could design and produce their own bomber in the same time it would take them to establish production lines, and it would be better than a Flying Fortress. When their XB-24 prototype took to the air on 29th December 1939, it was a very different-looking aeroplane to the B-17 Flying Fortress, with its shoulder-mounted thin wings, deep, yet narrow fuselage and twin-boom tail, it had a maritime aircraft appearance about it. Following its eventual USAAF introduction in 1941, the B-24 Liberator was produced in vast quantities, serving in every theatre during the Second World War, and making a vital contribution to the Allied War effort.

Lockheed Martin’s F-35 Lightning II is a 5th Generation fighter developed with three distinct variants: the F-35A conventional takeoff and landing (CTOL) aircraft, the F-35B short takeoff vertical landing (STOVL) design, and the F-35C intended for carrier deployment. Aircraft have been delivered since 2015. The F-35C has larger wings and horizontal stabilizer than other F-35 variants in light of its carrier deployment design, as well as a reinforced nose landing gear with dual tires to help it withstand the punishment of carrier landings, plus a launch bar for catapult assisted takeoffs. It low observability promises to give U.S. Navy operations a new dimension. As of 2024, the F-35C is deployed with six active Navy and Marine Corps units.

The Sikorsky CH-53 Sea Stallion is a heavy, American-made transport helicopter with a metal structure in a classic layout with a main rotor and a tail rotor on the beam. The drive is provided by two General Electric T-64-GE-413 engines with a capacity of 3925 KM each. The flight of the first prototype took place in 1964, and serial production continued in 1966-1978. It is estimated that about 510 copies of this helicopter were built. The Sikorsky CH-53 Sea Stallion was created in response to a tender for a new transport helicopter launched by the Marine Corps in 1959. The new machine was to be able to launch freely, have a loading ramp at the rear of the hull and carry about 50-60 soldiers. All these criteria were met by the machine of the Sikorsky concern. Many development versions of this very solid helicopter were created in the course of serial production. One of them was the CH-53D version with a stronger hull structure, better performance and higher lifting capacity. Another was the search and rescue version, designated CH-53GE. There were also versions dedicated to foreign recipients with changed avionics or engines (e.g. CH-53G created for the needs of German aviation of land forces). The CH-53 helicopter took an active part in the Vietnam War (1964 / 1965-1975). It has also been exported to several countries, including Austria, Germany, Israel and Mexico. Features Tail boom can be built straight or folded Rear ramp can be built open or closed Two pilot figures included Highly detailed cockpit and landing gear Fully engraved panel lines

Small, lightweight, and versatile, the F-16 has proven to be an exceptional combat aircraft that is capable of a variety of missions. The aircraft has undergone several updates during its service life, the latest of which is the Block 50, which features a more powerful F110-GE-129 engine and improved radar and avionics. Armed with the AGM-88 HARM anti-radiation missile, it was designated as the F-16CJ and was tasked with "Wild Weasel" missions to suppress enemy air defences. The addition of the CCIP system in 2005 further enhanced its combat capabilities. Features Length: 316mm, Width: 197mm IFF antenna array in front of the cockpit distinguishes this CCIP-equipped model from other F-16s Curved form of the F-16 accurately reproduced with trademark Tamiya precision Moveable horizontal stabilizers. "Flaperons" can be modelled in the up or down positions. Full ordnance load including AGM-88 HARM, AIM-120C AMRAAM, AIM-9M/X Sidewinder, ECM pod, and fuel tanks included. Centerline and inner wing pylons as well as tail assembly feature polycaps to allow easy detachment for storage. 1 pilot figure included with 2 types of flight helmet. 3 types of markings included. Parts also included to depict a pre-upgrade F-16CJ.  

The Handley Page (HP) Victor was a jet-powered, strategic bomber which, alongside the other ‘V’ bombers, the Avro Vulcan and Vickers Valliant, formed an essential part of Britain’s nuclear deterrent during the early part of the Cold War. The Victor was designed to carry out long-range, low-altitude attacks, but was later relegated to an aerial refuelling role when it was no longer deemed effective as a strategic bomber. Subject to RAF’s requirements for greater tactical manoeuvrability and a higher ceiling, the B.2 variant with more powerful Rolls Royce Conway engines was developed in 1959. Thirty-four were produced and several were later converted for reconnaissance and aerial refuelling purposes. Two RAF squadrons formed on the B.2 after it entered service in 1962, but it was soon succeeded by the B.2R, a conversion which allowed them to carry ‘Blue Steel’ nuclear missiles in addition to free-fall nuclear payloads. Following the introduction of submarine-launched Polaris missiles in 1969, the Victor was gradually relieved of its role as a nuclear deterrent.

A groundbreaking helicopter design, the Westland Lynx was developed as the potential replacement for several rotary types in British service during the 1970s, and produced in collaboration with French manufacturer Sud Aviation. From the prototype's maiden flight, it was clear this was a very special aircraft. It set many helicopter speed records and became famous for its incredible agility. With variants produced for the British Army and the Royal Navy, the Lynx was used in many roles and remained in service for 40 years.

The Bristol Blenheim was conceived as a privately funded high-speed civilian aircraft, intended to wrestle the record for the fastest civilian aircraft in Europe away from the Germans. Successfully achieving this, it immediately attracted the attention of the RAF. At the outbreak of the Second World War, the Blenheim was available in more numbers than any other RAF aircraft.

The PR.XIX was the final photo reconnaissance version of the Spitfire to see active RAF service. Produced by mating features of the Mk.XI Spitfire to the powerful Griffon engine of the XIV, the PR.XIX was one of the fastest and, some say, best-looking of all Spitfire variants. Due to its role as a reconnaissance machine, it featured no armament, relying upon its high top speed to evade potential enemies. After the war, the PR.CIC served in the Far East, operating over Hainan Island and performing the RAF’s last ever operational sortie by a Spitfire over Malaya on 10th June 1957.

A gleaming silver steed flown by the most capable and intrepid young men Britain could call upon, the Bristol Bulldog was one of the most important British aircraft of the inter-war period, when powerful biplane fighters unquestionably ruled the skies. Initially developed as a private venture by the Bristol Aeroplane Company, the Bulldog was the brainchild of accomplished aircraft designer Frank Barnwell, the man behind the successful Bristol F2B Fighter of the Great War, and was a light, all-metal and fabric-covered fighter, powered by a 440hp Bristol Jupiter engine.The Bulldog was armed with a pair of forward-firing Vickers 0.303" machine guns mounted on either side of the cockpit, but ultimately never fired its guns in anger during a relatively short seven-year period serving with Fighter Command. Although it was the most capable fighter of the day, the Bulldog was more closely associated with challenging formation flying and spectacular aerobatics, with the Royal Air Force thrilling huge crowds at airshows and pageants around the country, as they demonstrated the effectiveness of a modernising air force.What the Bulldog did do was help advance Britain's aviation industry towards the production of the sleek, monoplane fighters which would contest the Second World War, as it highlighted the fact that biplane designs were fast approaching their zenith. Perhaps the most famous incident involving a Bristol Bulldog proved to be a rather unfortunate one, when an accomplished, but rather headstrong RAF pilot performed unauthorised low-altitude aerobatics for a group of onlookers and a private civilian aerodrome in Berkshire.Flying so low that the wingtip of his fighter struck the ground during a manoeuvre, the Bulldog cartwheeled across the airfield, inflicting catastrophic injuries on the pilot - that pilot was future Second World War RAF ace and inspirational national hero Douglas Bader.Specifications Item Length - Without Packaging (cm): 15.9 Item Width - Without Packaging (cm): 21.4 How many pieces will be found in the box opened by the customer?: 120 Item Scale: 1:48 Scale Contents (what's in the box) sets: Plastic kit, instruction sheet, paint guide and decal sheet.

Focke-Wulf Fast Bomber WWII LUFTWAFFE Secret Project F In the tumultuous years of the 1940s, a shadowy project emerged from the corridors of innovation, shattering the conventional norms of aviation. The FW 1000, a jet fighter-bomber that soared beyond the boundaries of its era, was a testament to audacious vision and pioneering ingenuity. What set the FW 1000 apart was not merely its propulsion system or weaponry, but its radical flying wing design—a sleek and seamless silhouette that challenged the very essence of conventional aircraft. Conceived as a triad of speed, range, and payload, the FW 1000 was a daring dream etched in the annals of aviation history.Over time, you can continue to expand your collection by adding new models, including limited-edition releases, special paint schemes, and models from ModelCollect With a mind-bending top speed of 1000 kilometers per hour, the FW 1000 sought to redefine the limits of aerial velocity, pushing the boundaries of what was deemed achievable in the 1940s. Its impressive range of 1000 kilometers was no less revolutionary, envisioning a strategic reach that could alter the dynamics of military operations. Yet, perhaps the most astonishing feat was the aircraft's payload capacity—a formidable 1000 kilograms of bombs. The FW 1000 was not merely a speed demon; it was a formidable force capable of striking with precision and power. Specification 1/48 Scale When completed, the overall length will be approximately 125 mm and the overall width approximately 219 mm.

An aircraft that must surely be considered one of the most distinctive types to have ever seen Fleet Air Arm service, the Fairey Gannet was as capable as it was unique and was significant as the only post-war military contract to be won by the famous Fairey Aviation Company. Arguably the most unconventional Fairey designed aircraft to enter full production, the Gannet was developed in response to a 1945 Royal Navy requirement for an advanced carrier-based, turboprop-powered anti-submarine hunter-killer, one which was rugged enough to withstand the rigors of operation at sea.  Intended to counter the recent expansion of the Soviet submarine fleet at the start of the Cold War era, the Gannet was equipped with all manner of the latest electronic detection equipment and if an enemy submarine was detected, it could be marked, tracked, and if necessary, attacked, using bombs, depth charges, rockets, and air-launched acoustic torpedoes. One feature of the Gannet which helped to give it a unique appearance was the adoption of its powerplant, the innovative Armstrong Siddeley Double Mamba. This arrangement saw two gas turbine engines mounted side by side in the nose of the gannet, sharing a common gearbox, but both operating independently, each engine driving its own coaxially mounted, contra-rotating propeller. In addition to this, the engines could run on kerosene and even diesel fuel, which was safer to handle and less refined than traditional aviation fuels.  This arrangement provided Gannet crews with more than enough power for carrier operations, with the reassurance of two engines when embarking on long ocean patrols. Once in flight, the pilot could shut down one of the engines to conserve fuel and whilst this would reduce the Gannet's maximum speed, it would extend its loiter capabilities. Usually, a pilot would alternate engine use during a long patrol, running each engine for around an hour before swapping to the other engine - the engine mounted on the port side drove the front propeller. Another unique feature of the Gannet's design was its bi-folding wing system, something which was designed to allow this large aircraft to operate safely and to be stored aboard one of the Royal Navy's relatively small aircraft carriers. When a pilot engaged the wing unfold, this ingenious system not only prepared the wings for flight, but also automatically connected all flight control systems, hydraulic connections and fuel pipes to the main system, without any ground crew intervention.  In operation, there are reports that the Gannet was so rugged a design that when one aircraft lost the outer sections of both wings after performing a particularly violent manoeuvre, the aircraft still managed to make it back safely to its home carrier, something which can only have endeared the aircraft to its crews still further. The Fairey Gannet would prove to be an extremely rugged and highly effective anti-submarine aircraft, one which could carry an impressive array of offensive ordnance and one which was able to attack submarines either on the surface, or when submerged and trying to evade its attentions. Well-liked by air and ground crews alike, 348 Gannets would eventually be produced and in addition to serving with Britain's Fleet Air Arm, the aircraft would also see service with the navies of Australia, Germany and Indonesia.

Dassault Mirage F-1 was developed to replace the renowned delta-wing supersonic fighter, the Mirage III, which had established the French aviation industry as a global benchmark in the 1960s. The Mirage F-1, in its fighter configuration, entered service with the French Air Force at the end of 1973 and, within a few years, replaced the earlier Mirage III fleet. Unlike its predecessor, it features a swept-wing design, which significantly improved its flight performance and manoeuvrability. Over the years, the Mirage F-1 evolved through continuous upgrades in onboard electronics, avionics, and weapon systems, enhancing its operational longevity. The aircraft also achieved significant commercial success, being adopted by numerous air forces worldwide to equip their fighter squadrons.

Unquestionably one of the most distinctive British aircraft of the Second World War, the Hampden was an impressively manoeuvrable medium bomber which saw extensive service during the early stages of the war, with its narrow 3ft-wide fuselage earning it the nickname of the 'Flying Suitcase'. It was used on the RAF's first bombing raid against Berlin in August 1940.Specifications Item Length - Without Packaging (cm): 22.6 Item Height - Without Packaging (cm): 6.3 Item Width - Without Packaging (cm): 29.2 How many pieces will be found in the box opened by the customer?: 123 Item Scale: 1:72 Scale Contents (what's in the box) sets: Plastic kit, instruction sheet, paint guide and decal sheet.

The Republic P-47 Thunderbolt is an American, single-engine fighter and fighter-attack aircraft, built in a low wing configuration with a classic tail. Considered one of the best American fighters of World War II. The flight of the prototype took place in 1941, and serial production continued in the years 1942-1945. The P-47 can be described as the workhorse of the US Air Force in both Europe and the Pacific. Although the 2000HP R-2800 Double Wasp engine, turbine and exhaust system made the plane very large and heavy, it was not a barrier to achieving great performance. Technical data (P-47D version): length: 11m, wingspan: 12.42m, height: 4.47m, maximum speed: 697km / h, rate of climb: 15.9m / s, maximum range: 2900km, practical ceiling: 13,100m, armament: fixed - 8 12.7mm M2 machine guns, suspended - up to 1100 kg of bombs or unguided missiles. This is an injection-plastic jet aircraft model kit.

The P-47 was the first single-seated fighter to be equipped with a supercharger paired with a 2000hp engine, allowing it to fly at the same very high altitude as bombers. The P-47 was armed with eight 12.7mm machine guns. With the P-51 Mustang, the Thunderbolt constituted the main fighters of the US Army Air Force. This is the representation of P-47D early production that was nicknamed "razorback" because of the shape of its upper fuselage behind the cockpit. The P-47D was a high-speed, high-altitude capable fighter and escorted the allied bombers that were conducting raids over Germany. Its 1-ton payload and its robustness made the Thunderbolt the perfect aircraft for ground attacking missions. Features 1/48 scale, Overall Length: 230mm, Overall Width: 259mm. This is the representation of P-47D early production that was nicknamed "razorback". The massive form of the plane, especially its belly and its cowling, has been accurately reproduced. Flaps come as separate parts and can be attached in the up or down position. three types of mirrors, gun sights and propellers are provided. Engine cowling flaps and the intercooler air outlets on each side of the fuselage can be represented in the opened or closed position. 500lb bombs, rocket launchers and two types of drop tanks are part of the kit. A pilot figure and decals for two different markings are included.

This is a 1/72 scale plastic model assembly kit depicting the F-51D Mustang which was developed post-WWII for the new air force, and tasked largely with air-to-ground missions. Features Includes parts for 500lb bomb, 6-inch rockets and other ordnance. Comes with three marking options including one with a distinctive shark mouth design, plus a display base.

First flying in 1939, the Focke-Wulf FW190 was an immediate threat to RAF fighters when introduced in late 1941, being faster and more manoeuvrable than the Spitfire V then in service. The F-8 was the ground-attack version and differed primarily in its lack of outboard cannons. Various combinations of underwing weapons were fitted, but the most common was one centreline bomb and four small bombs on the wings. The A-8 version was the most numerous, heavily armed variant and entered service in 1944 in an attempt to stop Allied daylight raids. By then, however, the new Allied fighters had begun to outclass it.

In May 1941, as the war raged in Europe, a single-engine fighter of more than 4 tons made its first flight. This fighter was the XP-47B, prototype of the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt of which a total of 15,683 units would be built. Thanks to war experience, this aircraft was equipped with a 2,000hp radial R-2800 engine, a supercharger and eight 12.7mm machine guns. The XP-47B was to reach 633km/h and in January 1942, just after the United States went to war, the production of P-47B began. It was followed by the P-47C that incorporated various improvements and, from April 1943, by the P-47D, the most built version. The P-47D was equipped with an R-2800-59 engine, which can develop up to 2,300hp with combat emergency water injection system engaged. The ducts that were passing on the sides and below the cockpit to connect the supercharger placed behind the pilot's seat gave to this plane its massive aspect. Many sub-types of the P-47D, designated D-1 to D-40, were produced but the first versions were called "Razorback" because of their sharp edge dorsal fin. The D-25 sub-type, which was introduced around June 1944, was fitted with an electrically actuated bubble canopy in order to improve pilot visibility and increased capacity fuel tanks. This decision resulted in a completely remodeled plane shape. All subsequent sub-types were also fitted with the bubble canopy and became a characteristic feature of late production Thunderbolts. The P-47 "Bubbletop" proved to be an excellent, well-balanced fighter-bomber. Features Republic P-47D Thunderbolt "Bubbletop" plastic assembly kit. 1/48 scale. Fuselage length: 230mm, wingspan: 259mm. This is the representation of P-47D late production that was nicknamed "Bubbletop". The massive form of the plane, especially its belly and its cowling, has been accurately reproduced. Flaps come as separate parts and can be attached in the up or down position. Parts for replication of 3 types of mirrors, gun sights and 4 types of propellers are provided. Engine cowling flaps and the intercooler air outlets on each side of the fuselage can be represented in the opened or closed position. Parts for replication of 500-pound bombs, rocket launchers and three types of drop tank are part of the kit. A pilot figure and decals for two different markings are included.

The A6M3 (Model 32) variant of the famous Zero fighter replaced the earlier Sakae 12 engine with a more powerful Sakae 21 and also featured clipped wingtips to enable a greater roll rate. This kit accurately depicts this clip-winged Zero and includes parts to depict both the canopy and cowl flaps in open or closed positions. The landing gear may also be depicted in deployed or retracted positions. One pilot figure, six ground crew figures, and four marking options are also included. Features This is a 1/48 scale plastic model assembly kit. Length: 190mm, wingspan: 229mm. From the canvas covered control surfaces to the joint lines and rivets, this model is packed with detail.

Enter a Legend! The iconic Spitfire fighter was one of the backbones of the RAF in the desperate struggle for the skies during WWII, sporting a refined design and aesthetically pleasing elliptical wing, plus the proven Rolls Royce Merlin engine. It first flew in March 1936, and some two and a half years later in August 1938 the first production Spitfires - the Mk.I - started to reach units. This Mk.I would have a vital role to play in the Battle of Britain as the RAF and Luftwaffe played out a titanic struggle for the skies, and the successful fighting off of the Luftwaffe ensured that the Spitfire earned international fame that continues even in the modern day. Features This is a 1/48 scale plastic model assembly kit. Fuselage length: 191mm, wingspan: 235mm. Superb accuracy is based upon in-depth examination of actual aircraft. Parts are included to recreate various types of Mk.I front canopy, sights, antenna bases and pitot tubes. The interior of the floorless cockpit is rendered in detail. Choose between open or closed canopy, each with dedicated parts for superb realism. Comes with 1 seated pilot figure and three marking options including for aircraft in the Battle of Britain and Operation Dynamo.  

This set combines the F4U-1D Corsair with a "Moto-Tug", a little tractor which was used to position aircraft around the decks of Navy carriers during WWII. They are ideal as a small vignette on their own or as part of a larger diorama. Fast and heavily armed, the Corsair dominated opposing Japanese aircraft in the latter half of WWII. Following the initial F4U-1 and F4U-1A variants which were flown from land bases by the U.S. Marine Corps, the F4U-1D introduced in April 1944 was the first official carrier-capable version. It had a raised pilot seat position, bubble canopy and broader propeller blades. In addition to its six 12.7mm machine guns, it had two additional pylons on the inner wings as well as the ability to carry eight rockets on the outer wings. The type was used as a fighter-bomber in attacks against the Japanese home islands from February 1945. WWII U.S. aircraft carriers, from the large fleet carriers down to escort carriers, had many of these little tractors to increase the efficiency of flight deck operations. Powered by a 45hp engine, it was capable of pulling approximately 1.8 tons. Features (Corsair Dimensions) Length: 205mm, Wingspan (Extended): 236mm; ("Moto-Tug" Dimensions) Length: 62mm, Width: 29mm Distinctive features of the F4U-1D variant such as the higher pilot position and broader propeller blades have been accurately reproduced. Model may be assembled with either folded or extended wings. Includes parts for two drop tanks and eight rockets. "Moto-Tug" includes parts for two types of tow bars. Pilot and driver figures as well as three aircraft marking options are included.

The Mitsubishi A6M Zero was used by the Japanese Navy throughout WWII, and this Model 52 Hei variant was an attempt to counter ever faster and more powerful U.S. aircraft. The two wing-mounted 20mm machine guns were joined by an additional two 13mm guns, together with the 13mm nose machine gun making a total of five. Cropping and rounding off the wingtips reduced the wingspan to 11 meters. This variant of the famed Zero fighter flew until the end of the war. Features This is a 1/48 scale plastic mode assembly kit. Length: 190mm, wingspan: 229mm. The flowing lines of the A6M5c with curved cowlings is depicted in style. Canopy and cowl flaps can be assembled open or closed. Choose whether to assemble the model with landing gear up or down. Parts for 30kg bombs and rockets included. Comes with 7 marking options and 7 figures.
