Eurofighter Typhoon Starter Set 1:72

Whether thrilling Airshow audiences around the globe or serving as airborne ambassadors for the United Kingdom, the distinctive British Aerospace Hawks of the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team The Red Arrows have become some of the most famous aircraft in the world.

Described by famous British test pilot Eric ‘Winkle’ Brown as the most formidable aircraft of WWII, the Messerschmitt Me 262 was a quantum leap in aviation performance terms and stands as one of the most significant aircraft in the history of flight. Had the Luftwaffe been able to deploy large numbers of these impressive fighters, they would have taken a heavy toll of Allied aircraft.

Still a familiar sight at airfields all over the world, the de Havilland Tiger Moth primary trainer made its first flight back in 1931 and went on to provide British and Commonwealth air forces with thousands of trained pilots for their operational squadrons. Performing a similar role to this day, the Tiger Moth allows prospective Warbird pilots to gain valuable experience in flying a tail-dragger aircraft. 

Introduced at the 1966 London Motor Show, the Jaguar 420 was a compact sporting saloon in the familiar Jaguar mould. Powered by a 4.2litre straight six, the 420 produced a good 245BHP and proved to be a good handling and powerful saloon of the period. The Airfix model has been unavailable for some time and has therefore become highly collectable, therefore making this new piece a worthy addition to any collection!

A commerce raider on a displacement of only 10,000 ton, she became famous as a "Pocket Battleship." With heavier armour than her sister ships she was also the first German ship to be fitted with a form of radar. From September 1939 until December 1939 she raided allied shipping in the South Atlantic and Indian Ocean, sinking nine ships totaling 50,089 tons.

First flying in 1939, the Focke-Wulf Fw190 proved to be an immediate threat to RAF fighters when introduced in late 1941, being faster and more manoeuvrable than the Spitfire V then in service.

An aircraft which has to be considered one of the finest aeroplanes of the Second World War. The Hawker Tempest V entered Royal Air Force service in early 1944 and was a real brute of an aeroplane, fast, heavily armed, and possessing performance that could better any fighter the Luftwaffe had in service.
