MODEL KITS (1035)

In October 1931, the British Air Ministry began preparing specifications for a new bomber to replace obsolete biplanes. Specification B.9/32 was created in August 1932, with several manufacturers competing. Handley Page’s HP.52 was selected, with its prototype completed in spring 1936. In June, it flew successfully, reaching 426 km/h and carrying over 1,800 kg of bombs. It was shown to King Edward VIII in July. On October 4, 1937, the Air Ministry approved the HP.52 Hampden B.Mk.I (named after 17th-century defender John Hampden). Production began in spring 1938, with aircraft entering service by autumn. By July 1940, Handley Page produced 500 units. English Electric joined production in February 1940, building 770 more by March 1942. Canadian production followed. From the start of WWII, the HP.52 Hampden was actively used against Germany, conducting ground attacks, bombing raids, ship attacks, and mine-laying. It served with Bomber Command until autumn 1942, then transferred to Coastal Command from spring 1942, where many became torpedo bombers.  Specification Markings: HP.52 Hampden B.Mk.I L4032, the first production Hampden, Radlett, June 1938 HP.52 Hampden B.Mk.I L4085, No. 44 (Rhodesia) Squadron, Waddington, February 1939 HP.52 Hampden B.Mk.I L4076, No. 50 Squadron, Waddington, September 1939 HP.52 Hampden B.Mk.I P1272, Torpedo Development Unit, December 1939 Model size (length x width): 341 х 442 mm Box size: 410 x 260 x 55 mm Number of details: 350

Curtiss H-75 A1/A2 70080 In 1935, a modern, metal, monoplane fighter with retractable landing gear, designed at the Curtiss-Wright plant for a competition organised by the US Army Air Corps, took to the air for the first time. The manufacturer named it the Curtiss Hawk Model 75, and after refinement it proved to be one of the finest and most modern aircraft of the early period of the World War II. Its performance was all very good, it was noted for its excellent manoeuvrability, superior to the Messerschmitt Bf-109 and Hurricane. Its various versions, produced in excess of 1,000, were used by the air forces of over a dozen countries from South Africa to Finland and from Brazil to China - under various names. The most important user of the Curtiss H-75 was France. Ordered in several series marked A1 to A4, differing in armament and engines, they were delivered in more than 400 examples. They proved to be the finest fighters used by the Armée de l'air in the early months of the Second World War. Many French aces fought and scored victories over the Luftwaffe on aircraft of this type, as well as Polish and Czechoslovak pilots who fought in the defence of France. After the armistice, numerous Curtisses were evacuated to French Africa, where they formed the backbone of the Vichy state's aviation. Some of the French aircraft captured by the Germans were handed over to Finland, where they successfully fought against the Red Army until the end of the war. All serial Curtiss H75s were equipped with radial engines. When the airframe was adapted to the Allison inline engine, a completely new and legendary aircraft was created: The Curtiss P-40, produced in over 13,000 examples. New Arma Hobby 2025 moulds!
