Description

This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.

From Airfix comes the 1/72 Hawker Typhoon Mk.IB!

This kit contains a total of 74 pieces.

Designed initially to replace the Hawker Hurricane as the complimentary high-altitude fighter to the Supermarine Spitfire, the Typhoon instead found its fame as a low altitude ground attack aircraft, spearheading the airborne assault through occupied Europe after D-Day. Designed around the enormous 24 cylinder Napier Sabre engine, the Typhoon had a tough gestation before maturing as a capable, low level fighter bomber, devastating German armour in Normandy and beyond.
