This remarkable dual set combines two legendary RAF aircraft models in 1:72 scale, featuring the contemporary Eurofighter Typhoon FGR.4 'Moggy' alongside the historic Hawker Typhoon Mk.Ib that inspired its eye-catching D-Day tribute design. Comprising 117 parts and rated at skill level 2, this two-kit set is ideal for modellers aged 8 and older, enabling you to recreate both the original 1944 camouflage of No.257 (Burma) Squadron and the stunning 2024 homage on the RAF Display Team's aircraft.
As the nation prepared for the 80th anniversary of D-Day in summer 2024, aviation fans across Britain frequently checked the Royal Air Force Typhoon Display Team's social media for exciting updates. Indeed, on a rainy Monday in May, the doors of a hardened aircraft shelter (HAS) at RAF Coningsby opened to unveil a stunning Eurofighter Typhoon adorned in 1944 camouflage and identification markings.
The striking design on Typhoon FGR.4 ZJ913 was inspired by the RAF No.257 (Burma) Squadron Hawker Typhoon Mk.Ib, piloted by Officer Denzil Jenkins during the D-Day landings on 6th June 1944, featuring the iconic black and white identification stripes that were a hallmark of Allied aircraft over Normandy on D-Day. This was a brilliant move by the RAF PR team, and this aircraft captivated millions during the subsequent airshow season, at commemorative events in both the UK and France, and during a successful Canadian tour.
Fans quickly gave this unique aircraft a nickname, and from that initial day at Coningsby, she was known as 'Moggy', a clever nod to the squadron codes she bore, using the roundel as an O. Unfortunately, this appealing aircraft only served as the RAF display Typhoon for one season, but it will be fondly remembered as one of the most beloved RAF aircraft of the post-war period.
'Moggy' can now be a standout piece on your workbench, alongside the aircraft that inspired her design, with both model kits beautifully capturing this extraordinary link between past and present.

As Britain prepared to mark the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain in 2015, an aircraft unveiling at RAF Coningsby captured the imagination of enthusiasts and modellers alike, as one of the RAF’s cutting-edge Eurofighter Typhoon FGR.4 jets had a smart new paint scheme, which took its inspiration from a famous Fighter Command aircraft from 1940.
This high-tech multi-role jet aircraft had been painted in a scheme similar to that worn by the Hawker Hurricane Mk.I flown by Flight Lieutenant James Brindley Nicolson on 16th August 1940, the day on which his actions in combat earned him a Victoria Cross - the only VC awarded to a Fighter Command pilot during the entire war.
Nicolson’s RAF No.249 Squadron Hurricane was on fire after being attacked by a Messerschmitt Bf 109, however, he stayed in the aircraft to press home an attack against a Bf 110 ‘Destroyer’ which passed in front of his stricken fighter, despite flames licking around him. Nicholson later took to his parachute and landed safely, returning to combat flying after a period of treatment and recouperation.
Presenting the usually grey Eurofighter Typhoon in Battle of Britain era camouflage was a masterstroke by the RAF, and throughout the summer display season, she became the most popular aircraft in Royal Air Force inventory. Enthusiasts even referred to her as ‘GINA’, after the code letters carried on the aircraft’s fuselage, and she will always be remembered as one of the RAF’s best looking Typhoon jets.
You can now build 'GINA' and the aircraft which inspired her look in 1:72 scale, providing you with lots of modelling joy.

When it comes to specially presented RAF Typhoon FGR.4 display aircraft of the past 10 years, the one which served the longest on the UK airshow circuit, and was unquestionably the most patriotic in appearance was ZJ914.
Resplendent in a smart all-over black Aggressor scheme, the aircraft also benefited from union flag style markings and an RAF roundel on each side of its tail, and no matter what the weather, when this aircraft displayed with afterburners engaged, it was an aviation sight to behold.
The scheme was similar to the one worn by the RAF Shorts Tucano T.1 display during the 2008 season, which also had a black airframe, with red, white and blue detailing to mark the 90th anniversary of the Royal Air Force. Two Tucanos were presented in this manner: ZF210 and ZE338, with one serving as a reserve should the assigned display aircraft become unserviceable.
The Tucano was the RAF’s basic training aircraft for 30 years, prior to its service withdrawal in 2019. In the continuation of a now popular tradition, Typhoon ZJ914 also inherited a name by which all enthusiasts referred to her, as she became ‘Blackjack’. The aircraft wore this popular scheme for three full display seasons and even throughout the early months of display work up to the 2024 airshow season.
So, is it any wonder that ‘Blackjack’ became one of the most popular aircraft to have represented the Royal Air Force during the 21st century? 'Blackjack' and the aircraft which inspired her look are now both ready to build in 1:72 scale - a great project for modellers startimg to find their feet in this hobby.

To mark this year’s centenary commemorations of the formation of the Swedish Air Force, this model set charts the development of the force from one which purchased overseas aircraft types, to one of the most powerful air forces in the world. By the start of the Second World War, the Swedish Air Force consisted of 180 aircraft of different types, but mainly purchased from countries such as Britain, the US, Germany, and Italy.
Their first indigenous design was introduced in 1942, but in order to defend their neutrality, they continued strengthening with aircraft produced overseas. This continued into the jet age, however, Sweden was working hard to develop their own jet fighters, and when the most significant came, it was something very special: the SAAB J35 Draken supersonic interceptor.
Since then, Sweden has continued to produce impressive new aircraft, often operating them from dispersed sites using public roads as runways, with SAAB cars sharing the road with SAAB fighters.
This 1:72 scale Swedish Air Force Anniversary model kit set allows you to appreciate the brilliance of these planes from your workbench.

Airfix A40101 1/48 Legends ...
$ PRICE IN PROGRESS!
When Britain was standing alone against the might of the all-conquering German war machine, they needed heroes to steel the nation to its duty - men like Douglas Bader. Joining the Royal Air Force in 1928, Bader was a gifted sportsman with the reputation of a thrill seeker. However, he struggled with the academic side of life at Cranwell.
Commissioned in July 1930, he was posted to No.23 Squadron at Kenley to fly the Gloster Gamecock, and later, the Bristol Bulldog, one of the most advanced fighting aeroplanes in the world at that time. Although Bader’s wartime exploits and aerial victories were linked with both the Spitfire and Hurricane, the aircraft which defined him as an airman was the Bulldog biplane.
During an impromptu flying visit to the Reading Aero Club on 14th December 1931, and with official instructions not to perform low altitude aerobatics in the Bulldog still ringing in his ears, Bader recklessly ignored those instructions after being challenged by fellow pilots.
Having performed a series of spectacular manoeuvres and with his aircraft just a few feet above the ground, the wingtip of his fighter struck the ground during a slow roll manoeuvre and cartwheeled across the airfield, inflicting catastrophic injuries on the pilot, to the horror of those watching.
Despite suffering the amputation of both legs, Bader was determined to fly for the Royal Air Force again, and was given his chance following the outbreak of the Second World War. He flew both the Spitfire and Hurricane operationally, and was credited with 22 aerial victories, before being forced to bail out of his Spitfire over France, becoming a POW on 9th August 1941.
Douglas Bader’s story of courage and determination inspired Britain in her darkest hours, and when a victory flypast took place over London at the end of the war, it was hero Bader who led the formation in a Spitfire.
This Legends triple pack celebrates the courage and determination of a hero, with three aircraft model kits in 1:48 scale.

On 20th July 1969, the world watched in awe as NASA astronaut Neil Armstrong set foot on the surface of the moon, and delivered a statement which stands as one of the most famous in human history – “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Although this is the line which is often quoted when recounting this historic first lunar step, does it actually make sense? In the years which followed and during interviews, Neil Armstrong maintains that what he actually said was, “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind”, which makes complete sense and is historically profound. Either way, this 1:72 scale space model kit gift set is a lot of fun to build.

While the first Allied soldiers landed in Normandy via parachute during the night of the 5th and 6th of June 1944, the vast majority of the liberating Allied troops would have to come via the sea, landing on Normandy's beaches under heavy fire and fighting their way inland. The Allies had various different types of landing craft for getting men ashore. Some were very large like the Landing Ship Tank (LST), some much smaller like the small amphibious DUKW but it was the Higgins LCVP (Landing Craft, Vehicle, Personnel) which proved to be one of the most important types used.Employed to transport the majority of US Personnel, as well as many British troops when they were used by the Royal Navy, they were vital because they could very quickly offload men and small vehicles, such as Jeeps, while under fire. Jeeps were vital because they offered the Allies mobility in the earliest hours of the campaign. The LCVPs were also able to return fire with their compliment of two .30 inch machine guns, helping to protect the troops that they were disembarking. Overall D-day was a success, thanks in no small part to the work of boats like these and their crews.Specifications

On the eve of June the 6th 1944, the vast majority of mainland Europe was either under the control of Hitler's Nazi regime, or heavily influenced by it. Only Britain stood free in Europe and openly opposed the fascist regime then seeking to control the world.Supported by the United States and Canada, as well as troops from the then occupied nations, the 6th of June marked the Western Allies return to France after the humiliation of the evacuation from Dunkirk in 1940. The invasion required the Allies to hold total air superiority over the Normandy landing grounds. The lead up to the day had seen thousands of sorties carried out by Allied aircraft. From heavy bombers relentlessly pounding targets of strategic important in France, to fighter bombers such as the Hawker Typhoon that attacked enemy troop formations and smaller targets - the Allied air assault was total.Due to the distance from Normandy to the UK, once the Allied had a foothold on the French coast, small temporary airfields were immediately established which gave the Allies the opportunity to fly more sorties and to be closer to the action. Some of these airfields were so close to the frontline they suffered mortar attacks. These airfields were to prove their worth, and with the help of Allied airpower, Hitler's armies were pushed further and further back, culminating in the defeat of Nazi Germany just eleven months later.Standard is a trademark owned and licensed by British Motor Heritage Limited.

Between June 1940 and November 1942 the small but strategically important island of Malta, situated in the Mediterranean Sea, became a struggle that was in some ways similar to the Battle of Britain.Between June 1940 and November 1942 the small but strategically important island of Malta, situated in the Mediterranean Sea, became the most heavily bombed place on earth when first Italian and then German bombers attempted to force the island to surrender. Merchant shipping convoys were also attacked in an attempt to prevent the island being re-supplied with food and military equipment.Initially Maltas only defending fighter aircraft were outdated Gloster Gladiators and then Hawker Hurricanes but at the height of the battle, cannon armed and tropicalized Spitfire Mk.Vbs were used to intercept the German Junkers Ju88 and Ju87 Stuka dive bombers which were escorted by Messerschmitt Bf109Es. It became a struggle that was in some ways similar to the Battle of Britain. Eventually at the end of 1942, the war in North Africa had been won by the Allies so Malta was no lo of such important to the Axis powers and the bombing stopped allowing the starving civil population to be re-supplied by sea.Airfix Gift Sets are ideal for more advanced modellers and include glue, acrylic paints and brushes.Paint Scheme

Armed with cannons, bombs and unguided missiles, the little A4 Skyhawks would skim across the rice paddies and hug the densely forested mountains of Vietnam in the early days of the Vietnam war of the 1960s. Against them ranged small arms fire, artillery, guided surface to air missiles and MiGs of the North Vietnamese Air Force.
Alongside the supersonic MiG-21 was the older subsonic MiG-17F. This aircraft, codenamed Fresco, was a very maneuverable opponent, and certainly a match for the Skyhawk. Between them, they formed the backbone of the air war over Vietnam.

1:72 Scale
Highly Detailed Model
Representing two iconic British aircraft designs of the 20th century, the Supermarine Spitfire and BAe Hawk may have been developed during different eras of aviation technology, however, they are both instantly recognisable to millions of people. As Britain's most famous fighting aeroplane, the Spitfire is still viewed as the aircraft which came to the nation's rescue during the dark days of the Battle of Britain and its distinctive elliptical wing is still regarded as a design classic. In this set we offer the MkV Spitfire - a more powerful version used by over 140 RAF Squadrons and nine other nations including the USSR and United States.
As the mount of the world famous Red Arrows, the BAe Hawk is now unquestionably the aircraft which has come to represent the professionalism of the modern Royal Air Force and with 44 years exceptional service already to its name, even eclipses the service life of the famous Spitfire. During this year's Battle of Britain 80th anniversary commemorations, enthusiasts will be hoping to see the Hawks of the Red Arrows performing several evocative formation flypasts with Spitfires and Hurricanes at a number of Airshow events during the summer months.

$20.95
Requiring quite a significant redesign of the turret and with the gun mounted on its side, the 17-pounder equipped Shermans became arguably the most effective Allied tanks of the Second World War.As Allied forces began to move off the D-Day beaches and into the Normandy countryside, they knew they would be facing strong opposition from German Panzer units, including the feared Heavy Tank Battalions. Fortunately, they now had a tank which was capable of taking on the Tigers and Panthers, in the form of the Sherman Firefly, a British designed marriage of the M4 Sherman and their famous 17-pounder anti-tank gun. Usually deployed in a ratio of one Firefly to four standard Shermans, German tank commanders soon learned to look for the longer barrel of the Firefly and attempt to knock these tanks out first. In order to make identification more difficult, British crews would camouflage the front of their guns with light coloured paint, giving their tank the appearance of a standard 75mm equipped Sherman, hoping this deception would give them enough time to get in the first shot during any engagement.Complete with painting guides, water-based acrylic paint, adhesive and a brush, this kit is a great start to anyone's model building career!

Even though the German Panzerkamfwagen VI Tiger heavy tank saw its combat introduction back in September 1942, it is still regarded as the worlds most famous tank design to this day. Possessing a fearsome combination of firepower, armoured protection and mobility, the 88mm gun mounted on the Tiger and its excellent sighting optics allowed it to engage enemy armour at extreme ranges and certainly well outside the range at which they could return fire.Indeed, during the first Tiger engagements on the Eastern Front, the most likely way that a Tiger would be destroyed was by the hands of its own crew, as they were desperate to avoid the possibility of one of these magnificent machines falling into the hands of the enemy. From the date of its introduction, the Tiger was the tank against which all other tanks would be judged and large numbers of Allied tanks and military vehicles would fall to its gun.Complete with painting guides, water-based acrylic paint, adhesive and a brush, this kit is a great start to anyone's model building career!

The prototype of this aircraft first flew in 1935, later being improved to model E which was more powerful and better armed. The plane came into service as a German fighter plane as one of their backbones for World War 2. By the summer of 1940, they had over 500 of these aircrafts in service in the attack against Great Britain. It had competently fought in Poland and France but met its match in England against the RAF’s Spitfire which proved the superior aircraft.Built on a lightweight construction principle, it was designed primarily for high-speed flight by Willy Messerschmitt and Robert Lusser. It stands as the most produced aircraft fighter in history.Features
