Moving Right Along 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 Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is a single-seat, single-engine multirole fighter built by Lockheed Martin as a fifth-generation aircraft to meet the needs of the USAAF, US Navy, US Army and US Marine Corps. The aircraft was originally designated X-35 JSF, but in 2006 it was changed to F-35 Lightning II. Despite the fact that the main recipient will be the US government, the project is also co-financed by other countries, especially Great Britain, Italy and the Netherlands. The main contractors are the following companies: Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and BAE Systems. The overriding goal of the JSF idea is to create a universal aircraft, manufactured for all types of armed forces, which will allow for far-reaching standardization of spare parts and a significant reduction in costs. Ultimately, three versions of the F-35 (A, B and C) are to be created, which will have more than three quarters of identical components. The main task of the F-35 of all versions is to attack land targets, fulfill the tasks of a combat aircraft, air combat and electronic warfare. It should be noted that the F-35 is created with low-intensity conflicts in mind, unlike its larger "relative" F-22. Which does not change the fact that thanks to the power unit used (Pratt-Whitney F135 engines), avionics and stealth properties, it is one of the most modern multi-role aircraft in the world. The first serial F-35 was created in February 2006. To date (2013), 63 aircraft of this type have been created. Technical data (version F-35A): Maximum speed: 1930 km/h, maximum ceiling 18288 m, maximum range: 2220 km, armament: fixed - one four-barrel General Dynamics GAU-22/A 25mm cannon, underslung - up to 8100 kg of payload.

This is a model assembly kit of the Tomcat F-14D, which is an updated version of the aircraft that served until the Tomcat was withdrawn from Navy service in 2006. It featured an improved engine in the shape of the General Electric F110, and the aircraft’s transition from the earlier carrier-based fighter models to the F-14D multi-role aircraft was facilitated by digital updates to radar and fire control systems. Some F-14Ds were newly-constructed, while conversions from F-14As also existed. Features 1/48 scale plastic model assembly kit. Fuselage length: 398mm, wingspan: 408mm (with variable sweep wing in fully forward position).Captures F-14D-specific features such as the engine afterburner nozzles, vertical stabilizers and even minute panel lines.

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.

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.

Quickly outclassed as a day fighter during the Battle of Britain, the Boulton Paul Defiant was tasked with protecting Britain from night bombing raids by the Luftwaffe. Not trained to fight at night, Defiant crews had to develop interception techniques as they fought but found the aircraft much more suited to this nocturnal fighting environment. After enjoying initial success against Luftwaffe pilots unfamiliar with Britain's turret fighter, Defiant crews soon discovered the limitations of their aircraft. The significant weight of the gun turret, combined with a relatively poor arc of defensive fire, meant that German Messerschmitts soon learned how to attack these unusual aircraft. As combat losses began to mount, RAF Defiants were relegated to night fighting duties, where the aircraft was much less vulnerable and could make better use of its offensive firepower. As the night Blitz against London raged, Defiant crews had to develop their own interception techniques, as many were not trained in this type of fighting. They soon began to score victories against the Luftwaffe raiders, helping to establish a cohesive night defence system and rebuilding the reputation of the Defiant. These all-black nocturnal hunters became some of the most distinctive RAF aircraft of the Second World War.

As a thoroughbred fighting aeroplane, the basic airframe of the Supermarine Spitfire was capable of accepting successive modifications which saw this incredible aircraft remain in production throughout the entire Second World War. That adaptability allowed the Spitfire to be upgraded to meet the challenge posed by the latest Luftwaffe fighters, one which saw the Spitfire Mk.IX hurriedly introduced during the summer of 1942 to combat the dominance of the fearsome Focke Wulf FW190 ‘Butcher Bird’. This variant of the Spitfire has since been described as potentially the most effective ‘stop-gap’ fighter in the history of military aviation.
