Description

This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.

At last! A new-tool injection-plastic kit of the Fairey Gannet! And we’ve only had to wait how long? Well, however long it has been since the Frog kit, the wait has certainly have been worth it. The kit features flaps that can be assembled in the lowered positions, an extendable radar pod under the aft fuselage, detailed landing gear and wheel wells a level of detail in the cockpits that is certainly acceptable for the scale – plus British cockpits of the period were all black, so not much would be visible in any event. Three marking options are included: s/n XA322, CU-771 of 769 Sq. RN; s/n XA402 of 820 Sq. RN aboard the HMS Bulwark and UA+112 of MFG3, West German Navy. Wingspan 188mm, length 229mm, 100 pieces.
