Academy Sea Harrier FRS.1 - Royal Navy (1:144)

Sea Harrier FRS.1 - Royal Navy British Royal Navy Sea Harrier FRS.1 V/STOL Strike Fighter. The British Aerospace Sea Harrier FRS.1 (Fighter, Reconnaissance, Strike, Mk 1) entered service with the Fleet Air Arm in 1978 as a unique solution to providing fighter cover from light aircraft carriers. Unlike conventional naval aircraft, the Sea Harrier used vectored-thrust nozzles to achieve short take-offs and vertical landings, removing the need for catapults or arrestor wires. The type’s finest hour came during the Falklands War of 1982. Armed with AIM-9L Sidewinders and equipped with Blue Fox radar for target detection, twenty-eight Sea Harriers from 800, 801, and reformed 809 Naval Air Squadrons deployed on HMS Hermes and HMS Invincible, supported by ten Harrier GR.3s from RAF No. 1 (F) Squadron, provided the UK’s only fleet air defence. Despite early doubts about their limited radar and modest speed, the Sea Harriers proved decisive, achieving twenty confirmed air-to-air kills against Argentine fighters and attack aircraft, without loss in aerial combat. They also flew hundreds of sorties on strike and patrol duties, often in harsh weather and at the limits of their endurance. The Sea Harrier’s effectiveness in the South Atlantic silenced critics and earned it a reputation as one of the most effective and adaptable naval fighters of its era. Its performance was a decisive factor in securing British victory, and the FRS.1 remains forever associated with the Falklands campaign. Reissued Minicraft kit. 2 sprues plus clear parts. Choice of 2 markings: (1) Sea Harrier FRS.1 XZ451, 801 NAS, HMS Invincible, Falklands Conflict 1982; (2) Sea Harrier FRS.1 XZ457, 800 NAS, HMS Hermes, Falklands Conflict 1982. 1:144 scale plastic model kit from Academy, requires paint and glue.

Thunder Models LRDG F8 Pilot Car (Standard Edition) (1:35)

LRDG F8 Pilot Car (Standard Edition) (1:35) This 1/35 scale kit from Thunder Model represents the LRDG F8 Pilot Car, a specialised vehicle used by the Long Range Desert Group for reconnaissance and navigation duties in harsh desert environments. The model captures the rugged and utilitarian design of this adapted vehicle. Part of the 1/35 vehicle model kits range, the kit includes a wide mix of materials such as plastic, photo-etched parts, resin components, and 3D printed details to enhance realism.   1/35 scale plastic model kit Includes 5 sprues with approximately 300 parts Photo-etched detail parts included 3D printed components and weapon parts Resin wheels for added realism Clear parts and foil elements included Decals for 5 marking options with printed maps The kit offers a high level of detail, particularly in the external fittings and equipment typically carried by LRDG vehicles. The combination of materials allows for a more refined build, especially in smaller components and accessories. The inclusion of multiple marking options and printed maps adds variety and helps represent different operational vehicles used in desert campaigns. History The Long Range Desert Group (LRDG) was a British reconnaissance and raiding unit formed during the Second World War. Operating deep behind enemy lines in North Africa, it specialised in navigation, intelligence gathering, and hit-and-run attacks across vast desert regions. The F8 Pilot Car was one of the vehicles adapted for these operations, often based on civilian or lightly modified military platforms. These vehicles were equipped for long-range travel, carrying extra fuel, water, and navigation equipment necessary for extended missions in remote areas. LRDG vehicles were typically lightly armed but relied on speed, mobility, and knowledge of the terrain rather than heavy protection. They played a crucial role in supporting larger operations and gathering intelligence on enemy movements. The distinctive appearance of these vehicles, often heavily loaded with equipment, has made them a popular subject for scale modelling and diorama work focused on desert warfare.

Italeri Messerschmitt Me 323 Gigant (1:72)

Messerschmitt Me 323 Gigant  The Me-323 “Gigant” was one of the largest transport aircraft built during the Second World War. It was developed to meet the specific requirement of the Luftwaffe, following the extension of supply lines, to transport troops and materials over long distances. Initially developed from a glider, it was equipped with six radial engines mounted on the wing leading edge, capable of providing sufficient power for fully loaded flight operations. The enormous fuselage was able to carry troops—more than 120 men—supplies, artillery pieces, and light vehicles. Its great transport capacity compromised its maximum speed, which only slightly exceeded 240 km/h. It was employed on the North African and Tunisian fronts to supply the Afrika Korps from bases in Sicily, as well as on the Russian front. It is considered a milestone in transport aircraft history. - 1:72 Scale

Tamiya Honda CB1000F (1:12)

Honda CB1000F (1:12) Description: Tamiya is proud to announce the release of the Honda CB1000F as a new addition to our 1/12 Motorcycle Series. Honda’s CB series of road sport bikes has a long and proud history of innovation; it started with the 1959 Benly CB92 Super Sports and includes machines such as the genre-defining 1969 CB750 FOUR and its inline four engine, the DOHC 4-valve engine CB750F/900F developed for the European market, and the race-focused 1981 CB1100R. Fast forward to March 2025 and Honda announced that its existing flagship CB1300SF would be passing on the torch to the CB1000F Concept. Shortly after, in November of that year it went on sale as the CB1000F. The CB1000F’s “Best Balance Roadster” design concept demanded that it be at home in a variety of scenes from everyday use to touring.  It inherits and updates the iconic “Flowing Line” styling popularised on its CB750F/900F predecessors, the shape flowing smoothly from the tank right back to the rear cowl, via the side covers to give the bike its powerful and speedy silhouette. The round LED headlight catches the eye with its modern yet traditional design encircled by a ring-shaped light and featuring a plated rim and central section inscribed with the HONDA logo. At the rear, the seat’s surface pattern is inspired by the CB750F, and the eye is drawn to design cues like the large taillight and the muffler that dominates the right side of the bike. Some say the CB designation stands for the C in “motor cycle” and the B in “clubman,” but it could be argued that this new iteration has a C for “creative” and a B for “benchmark.” Either way, it promises hours of stress-free riding for all: another icon in a series full of them.   About the Model: This is a 1/12 scale model assembly kit. Length: 178mm, height: 73mm, height: 109mm The form and flowing lines of the Honda CB1000F are captured in style Main components such as engine, front and rear suspension, muffler and stand are attached to the frame by screws The actual bike’s metal-plated sections such as muffler, headlight, front fork inner tubes and side mirror surfaces are depicted by metal-plated parts A clear red part is included to capture the distinctive taillight, and clear parts to recreate the ring around the headlight and its surface part, LCD display, and front windshield Features realistic depictions of the liquid-cooled inline-4 engine and radiator hoses featuring mesh patterns (it is about 25 years since we released a kit depicting an uncowled engine) One-piece part authentically recreates fuel tank and front fender together to limit parting lines Chain is split into right and left halves, and finely recreates roller sections Brake disc parts have minute holes, and outer and inner discs are separate parts for easier painting Includes a metal rear damper spring, and vinyl tubing for pipes such as clutch wiring and brake hose Dedicated front and rear synthetic rubber tyres have realistic depictions of tread patterns, and the seat has authentic renderings of leather patterns Comes with masking stickers to use for metre and fuel tank cap Choose whether to use the headlight cowl, which is optional on both the full-size bike and this model  

Airfix Junkers Ju87R-2/B-2 Stuka (1:48)

Junkers Ju87R-2/B-2 Stuka  This 1:48 scale model beautifully represents the Junkers Ju-87 Stuka, one of the most iconic aircraft from the Second World War. Known for its inverted gull-wing design, this dive-bomber and ground-attack plane model consists of 161 parts and offers two different paint options. With its unique silhouette and Skill Level 3 complexity, this kit replicates the powerful aircraft that could accommodate a two-man crew, carry up to four machine guns, and transport 1800kg of bombs, all driven by a single V-12 Junkers Jumo engine. Once assembled, the model spans an impressive 288mm across the wings. Key Features: 161 piece model kit in 1:48 scale Choice of two authentic paint schemes Skill Level 3 build suitable for ages 8 and above Inverted gull-wing design faithfully reproduced Completed wingspan of 288mm Detailed cockpit for two-man crew Includes decals and full assembly instructions History: The Junkers Ju-87 Stuka took its maiden flight in 1935 and became one of the most recognisable and feared aircraft during the Second World War. The term 'Stuka' is derived from the German word Sturzkampfflugzeug, which translates to dive-bomber, and this aircraft was specifically engineered for precision bombing missions. Unusually large for a dive-bomber, the Stuka was powered by a single V-12 Junkers Jumo engine and weighed over four tonnes. Despite its size, it could carry a substantial 1800kg of bombs and was equipped with up to four machine guns. The aircraft was operated by a two-man team, consisting of a pilot and a rear gunner, seated in a tandem cockpit beneath the distinctive inverted gull-wing structure. The Stuka's unique design included fixed, spatted landing gear and its signature cranked wings. It was equipped with automatic pull-up dive brakes located under the wings, enabling steep dives followed by automatic recovery. Notoriously, it featured the Jericho-Trompete, or 'Jericho Trumpet' - a siren mounted on the undercarriage that emitted a chilling sound during dives, intended to instill fear in those below. The Ju-87 B-2 was the most produced variant, widely used in the early years of the war across various theatres. The R-2 variant was developed for long-range missions, particularly for anti-shipping purposes, with extended range achieved through additional fuel capacity and underwing drop tanks. The Stuka was highly effective during the Blitzkrieg campaigns in Poland and France, where it operated with air superiority. However, during the Battle of Britain, the slow and poorly defended aircraft suffered significant losses against modern fighters. Despite this, it continued to perform effectively on the Eastern Front and in the Mediterranean, where Luftwaffe ace Hans-Ulrich Rudel famously completed over 2,530 combat missions in this aircraft. The Stuka remains one of the most recognisable aircraft silhouettes from the Second World War, with its distinctive look and infamous reputation securing its place in aviation history.

Initially suggested as a tactical transport for the Egyptian Air Force, it did not require the amphibious features of previous Sea Kings, leading to the removal of side floats. Featuring folding rotors and tail, the Commando was introduced into the Royal Navy as the Sea King HC.4. It was later equipped with radar-warning and infrared jamming systems and could release M130/M147 flares as countermeasures. In addition to transporting troops, it could carry underslung loads up to 2.5 tonnes. With an extended range and capacity to carry 28 troops, it was perfect for amphibious transport duties. The HC.4 was actively used in conflicts in the Falklands, Balkans, Gulf, Lebanon, and Afghanistan. It frequently undertook missions to evacuate injured personnel and refugees, as well as supporting and preparing for ground operations. It was scheduled for retirement from UK Forces service in March 2016. The Westland Sea King is a product of Leonardo UK Ltd and all rights in it, including its name, are hereby reserved.

Recreating these scenes as scale model dioramas has been a cherished activity for years, with this classic Recovery Set offering abundant inspiration for creative modellers. The Bedford Ox was among the most adaptable and dependable vehicles in British military service during World War II. Coupled with the Queen Mary Trailer, named for its considerable size and prestigious cargo, it served as the primary means of transporting dismantled or damaged aircraft between airfields and maintenance sites. The Thornycroft Amazon, with its sturdy crane, was equally vital for lifting tasks, moving engines, and handling significant airframe components during recovery and repair operations. These vehicles were the backbone of RAF ground support, working tirelessly to maintain the operational status of Britain's fighter and bomber squadrons. Whether recovering crashed aircraft from rural areas, transporting newly assembled machines to active squadrons, or moving damaged airframes to Maintenance Units for rebuilding, these recovery teams played a crucial yet often overlooked role in sustaining the RAF's operational capabilities throughout the war and into the post-war era. This classic Airfix set encapsulates the essence of these dynamic airfield scenes, allowing modellers to recreate scenarios such as a dismantled Spitfire or a Vickers Wellington fuselage being transported for repair.

Airfix Vintage Classics: Douglas Dauntless SBD 3/5 (1:72)

Vintage Classics: Douglas Dauntless SBD 3/5  This 1:72 scale model kit from the Airfix Vintage Classics collection lets you recreate the Douglas SBD Dauntless, an aircraft that might appear unassuming but was a formidable force in the air.

Comprising 51 components and featuring a wingspan of 175mm, this Skill Level 2 kit is designed for modellers aged 8 and up, offering two paint scheme options.

It became a major threat to the Imperial Japanese Navy and enabled the US Navy to retaliate after the Pearl Harbour attack. Responsible for sinking more Japanese vessels than any other aircraft during World War II, the Dauntless also downed numerous Japanese aircraft in aerial battles throughout the Pacific conflict. The SBD stood for Scout Bomber Douglas, designed as a carrier-based dive bomber and reconnaissance aircraft. Its most notable achievement came during the Battle of Midway in June 1942, when SBD dive bombers from the USS Enterprise, USS Yorktown, and USS Hornet managed to sink four Japanese aircraft carriers-Akagi, Kaga, Soryu, and Hiryu-in a single day, significantly altering the course of the Pacific War. Introduced in 1941, the SBD-3 variant offered enhanced armour for the crew and self-sealing fuel tanks, increasing its combat survivability. The SBD-5, debuting in 1943, was equipped with a more powerful 1,200 horsepower Wright R-1820-60 engine, enhancing its altitude performance. Both variants served with distinction throughout the Pacific campaign, operating from both aircraft carriers and island bases. Despite its slower speed and older design compared to newer aircraft, the Dauntless was highly effective due to its precise dive bombing, sturdy build, and reliability. It remained in frontline service until 1944, when it was gradually replaced by the faster Curtiss SB2C Helldiver, although many pilots favoured the Dauntless for its handling and dependability.

Comprising 414 pieces in total, this commemorative set includes the Gloster Gladiator, Bristol Bulldog, and Supermarine Spitfire - the aircraft that marked Bader's distinguished career from his beginnings at Cranwell to leading the victory flypast over London at the war's conclusion.   Key Features: -Three complete 1:48 scale aircraft kits celebrating Douglas Bader's legendary service -414 pieces in total offering a captivating building experience -Skill level 3 suitable for modellers aged 8 years and older -Includes the Bristol Bulldog, the aircraft that defined Bader as an airman -Features aircraft from his early RAF service to his wartime achievements -High-quality plastic construction with precise detailing -Single comprehensive paint scheme to ensure historical accuracy History: When Britain faced the formidable German war machine alone, heroes were needed to inspire the nation - individuals like Douglas Bader. Bader joined the Royal Air Force in 1928, known for his athletic prowess and thrill-seeking nature, although he found the academic demands at Cranwell challenging. Commissioned in July 1930, he was assigned to No.23 Squadron at Kenley, flying the Gloster Gladiator and later the Bristol Bulldog, one of the era's most advanced fighter planes. Although Bader's wartime achievements and aerial victories are associated with both the Spitfire and Hurricane, it was the Bulldog biplane that truly defined his early career. During an unplanned visit to the Reading Aero Club on 14th December 1931, despite being expressly forbidden from performing low altitude aerobatics in the Bulldog, Bader disregarded these orders after being provoked by fellow aviators. Executing a series of impressive manoeuvres, his aircraft, flying just above the ground, clipped the earth with its wingtip during a slow roll, causing it to cartwheel across the field, resulting in severe injuries to Bader, much to the onlookers' horror. Despite losing both legs, Bader was resolute in his desire to return to the Royal Air Force, and with the onset of the Second World War, he was given the opportunity. He flew both the Spitfire and Hurricane in combat, achieving 22 aerial victories before being forced to eject from his Spitfire over France, becoming a prisoner of war on 9th August 1941. Douglas Bader's tale of bravery and perseverance inspired Britain during its darkest times, and when the victory flypast occurred over London at the war's end, it was Bader who led the formation in a Spitfire.

Airfix English Electric Lightning F.6 (1:48)

English Electric Lightning F.6 When it comes to significant British aircraft of the post Second World War era, few have had anything like the impact of the English Electric Lightning. It was a supersonic sensation which was originally introduced to protect Britain’s V-Bomber airfields against Soviet bomber attack. The ultimate incarnation of this flying hot-rod was the Lightning F.6, an aircraft which took all the performance of its predecessors, and presented it with even more speed, greater range, and better handling.  This magnificent aircraft posted a stellar 28-year career with the Royal Air Force, through some of the most volatile times in world history. The F.6 variant saw the return of guns to the Lightning, following their omission on the F.3 which preceded it, armament which complemented a pair of Red Top air-to-air missiles and was welcomed by serving RAF pilots.  Although incredible speed was always something associated with the Lightning, pilots were always of the opinion that the aircraft was more than just a point defender, and was easily capable of dogfighting, as long as its cannon armament was retained.  Our English Electric Lightning model kit is almost as impressive as the real thing in 1:48 scale. - Skill Level 3 - 3 Scheme Options - 153 Parts - Requires Glue & Paint to Complete - 1:48 Scale

Airfix Saturn V - Gift Set (1:144)

Saturn V - Gift Set History If there’s one machine which underlines man’s mastery of technological innovation and ability to overcome insurmountable challenges, then it's the Saturn V rocket series.  It was the largest and most powerful flying machine the world had ever seen when it made its first test launch in November 1967. A super heavy-lift launch vehicle developed by NASA in support of their Apollo program and America’s desire to place human beings on the moon in the 1960s and 70s, everything about the Saturn V was incredible, from the immense power of its launch sequence to the graceful way it pierced earth’s atmosphere and onwards into space.  The Saturn V stands tall as one of the great engineering achievements of the 20th century. - Plastic Kit Gift Set Includes all glue and paints - 1:144 Scale  

Tamiya M561 Gama Goat (1:35)

M561 Gama Goat  At Home Off of the Beaten Track Originally commissioned in 1966 as an off-road, amphibious vehicle, the M561 Gama Goat was a 6-wheel drive truck consisting of a 4-wheel tractor and a 2-wheel carrier module. What really set it apart from other vehicles of its type, however, was its employment of an articulation joint between the two modules that allowed them to move independently of one another: a most useful skill when traversing rough terrain. The 14,000 Gama Goats produced up to 1973 were used in a variety of roles by both the U.S. Army and Marine Corps, and were deployed in the fighting in Grenada in 1983, although by the start of the 1990s the Gama Goat had been largely phased out. The former half of its unusual nickname came from Roger Gamaunt, designer of the key articulation joint, and the latter half from its tenacious goat-like climbing ability. About the Model ★1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit of the M561 Gama Goat.  ★Length: 170mm, Width: 62mm.  ★The model accurately captures the unique and powerful 2-module form of the M561.  ★Articulation joint is recreated using a poly cap and provides authentic movement.  ★Includes optional front windscreen and winch parts.  ★Realistic depiction of the complex 6-wheel suspension is achieved with uncomplicated assembly.  ★Comes with 1 figure and 3 marking options. - 1:35 Scale

Airfix Ferret Scout Car Mk.1 (1:35)

Ferret Scout Car Mk.1 Although armoured, the Ferret Scout Car was never intended to face enemy heavy armour, relying on its low profile, speed and stealth to make contact with enemy units, some of which were engaged in similar reconnaissance roles. Creeping into contested territory, the Ferret was built for sniffing out the enemy, but not to cause trouble in an offensive sense.  Their role was to send real-time radio reports back to HQ and, should their scouting take them out of radio range, to utilise a second HQ Ferret to relay messages back. They provided military planners with information and, if detected, the Ferret would extricate the crew away from any combat situation at speed.  As long as they were only targeted by small arms fire, they would have adequate protection until their driver could get them out of harm’s way, speeding back towards more friendly territory. - Plastic Kit Requires Glue & Paint to Complete - 194 Pieces - 3 Scheme Options - Skill Level 2 - 1:35 Scale

Airfix Handley Page Victor K.2/SR.2 (1:72)

Handley Page Victor K.2/SR.2 The Handley Page (HP) Victor was a jet-powered, strategic bomber which, alongside the other ‘V’ bombers, the Avro Vulcan and Vickers Valliant, formed an essential part of Britain’s nuclear deterrent during the early part of the Cold War. The Victor was designed to carry out long-range, low-altitude attacks, but was later relegated to an aerial refuelling role when it was no longer deemed effective as a strategic bomber.  Subject to RAF’s requirements for greater tactical manoeuvrability and a higher ceiling, the B.2 variant with more powerful Rolls Royce Conway engines was developed in 1959. Thirty-four were produced and several were later converted for reconnaissance and aerial refuelling purposes. Two RAF squadrons formed on the B.2 after it entered service in 1962, but it was soon succeeded by the B.2R, a conversion which allowed them to carry ‘Blue Steel’ nuclear missiles in addition to free-fall nuclear payloads. Following the introduction of submarine-launched Polaris missiles in 1969, the Victor was gradually relieved of its role as a nuclear deterrent.

Airfix Boeing B-17G / Fortress Mk.III (1:72)

Boeing B-17G / Fortress Mk.III The Boeing B-17 ‘Flying Fortress’ boasts a remarkable legacy, as both a strategic weapon and an enduring symbol of American air power during the Second World War. Designed as a large, multi-engine bomber with substantial defensive armament, the B-17 was introduced in 1938. First used in combat with the RAF in 1941, carrying out bombing raids in France, its poor performance suggested that improved defences and greater bombing accuracy were needed. Later variants like the B-17G were more effective and gradually became potent strategic weapons, capable of carrying out high-altitude, long-range attacks. Despite heavy defensive armament B-17s still suffered at the hands of enemy fighters. - 264 Parts - 2 Scheme Options - Skill Level 3 - Plastic kit - 1:72 Scale

Airfix WWII RAF Ground Crew (1:48)

WWII RAF Ground Crew While it is the pilots that often receive the most acclaim for their role in defending the United Kingdom from the Luftwaffe during the Battle of Britain in the late summer of 1940, they could never have completed this job alone. Supporting the pilots were many more men and women from across the UK who served as ground crew, performing the vital tasks of refuelling, rearming and maintaining fighter aircraft in between sorties. This was a particularly hazardous task during the Luftwaffe attacks and hit-and-run raids upon RAF airfields. In addition to refuelling and re-arming Spitfires and Hurricanes with thousands of .303 rounds, these hard-working people also patched up damaged fighters, started the engines before sorties, and assisted pilots despite the hectic pace of the battle. The bombing raids and strafing attacks claimed many lives and many more ground crew members were injured, but they carried on, both through the battle and throughout the remainder of the war, often working both in the blazing sun and freezing cold, ensuring that the RAF had the means to defend the skies of Great Britain. This kit includes:   8 Ground Crew Figures  2 Pilot Figures  1 Trolley Accumulator  1 Oil Bowser  1 Ammunition Trolley Wheel Chock  Miscellaneous Support Equipment   - 108 Parts - 1 Scheme Options  - Skill Level 1 - Plastic kit - 1:48 Scale

Shortly after joining the fleet, HMS Belfast struck a German magnetic mine in November 1939, which caused significant damage, keeping it out of service for three years. Rejoining the fleet in 1942 as the Royal Navy's largest cruiser, HMS Belfast helped protect Arctic convoys to Russia and participated in the sinking of the German battlecruiser Scharnhorst in 1943. In 1944, as flagship of Bombardment Force E, she supported the D-Day landings. After World War II, HMS Belfast saw action in the Korean War from 1950 to 1952 before being decommissioned in 1963, ending her active career. Saved from scrapping by a preservation campaign led by Rear-Admiral Sir Morgan Morgan-Giles, HMS Belfast was turned into a museum ship and opened to the public on 21 October 1971. Moored on the River Thames, she remains a part of the Imperial War Museum, as the last surviving vessel of its type.

The Bulldog was armed with a pair of forward-firing Vickers 0.303" machine guns mounted on either side of the cockpit, but ultimately never fired its guns in anger during a relatively short seven-year period serving with Fighter Command. Although it was the most capable fighter of the day, the Bulldog was more closely associated with challenging formation flying and spectacular aerobatics, with the Royal Air Force thrilling huge crowds at airshows and pageants around the country, as they demonstrated the effectiveness of a modernising air force.  What the Bulldog did do was help advance Britain's aviation industry towards the production of the sleek, monoplane fighters which would contest the Second World War, as it highlighted the fact that biplane designs were fast approaching their zenith. Perhaps the most famous incident involving a Bristol Bulldog proved to be a rather unfortunate one, when an accomplished, but rather headstrong RAF pilot performed unauthorised low-altitude aerobatics for a group of onlookers and a private civilian aerodrome in Berkshire.  Flying so low that the wingtip of his fighter struck the ground during a manoeuvre, the Bulldog cartwheeled across the airfield, inflicting catastrophic injuries on the pilot - that pilot was future Second World War RAF ace and inspirational national hero Douglas Bader.

Included with each model is a full set of easy-to-follow colour instructions, free-rolling wheels for cars and tanks, and display stands for all the aircraft.  The Sherman Firefly is an excellent choice for someone who wants functionality within a kit. Designed to 1:35 scale, the turret is fully poseable, including moving wheels and tracks, which are also individually linked.  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. To make identification more difficult, British crews camouflaged 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.

Designed to 1:35 scale, the turret is fully poseable, including moving wheels and tracks, which are also individually linked. Even though the German Panzerkamfwagen VI Tiger heavy tank saw its combat introduction back in September 1942, it is still regarded as the world's 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 fell to its gun.

Unimpressed at the prospect, Consolidated proposed that they could design and produce their own bomber in the same time it would take them to establish production lines, and it would be better than a Flying Fortress.  When their XB-24 prototype took to the air on 29th December 1939, it was a very different-looking aeroplane to the B-17 Flying Fortress, with its shoulder-mounted thin wings, deep, yet narrow fuselage and twin-boom tail, it had a maritime aircraft appearance about it. Following its eventual USAAF introduction in 1941, the B-24 Liberator was produced in vast quantities, serving in every theatre during the Second World War, and making a vital contribution to the Allied War effort.  The introduction of the 'H' model addressed the aircraft's vulnerability to frontal attack, something enemy fighter pilots had been exploiting since the B-24's introduction. This variant was the first to be manufactured with an electrically operated Emerson A-15 nose turret but also had around 50 other modifications to make the Liberator a more combat-effective aircraft.  This was also the first variant to truly take advantage of America's capacity for mass production and it was claimed that Ford could produce Liberators faster than the USAAF could process them into service. The Consolidated B-24 Liberator became the most heavily produced four-engined bomber in the history of warfare and America's most produced aircraft of the Second World War. Quite simply, the B-24 was flown by more men, carried more bombs over greater distances and destroyed more targets than any other bomber in the history of aviation.

Thunder Models LRDG F30 Patrol Truck (Standard Edition) (1:35)

LRDG F30 Patrol Truck (Standard Edition) Includes: - Highly detailed plastic kit - Body, underframe detail - Fine interior parts - Requires glue and paints to complete NOT included - 235 parts - 1:35 Scale  Vehicle information: “Only men who do not mind a hard life, with scanty food, little water and lots of discomfort, men who possess stamina and initiative, need apply” The Long Range Desert Group was the first and ‘arguably the most dashing and successful irregular formation on either side in the entire war’.  Their role was deep penetration reconnaissance, road-watching (observing Axis forces movements along the coastal roads to establish logistics and military unit movements to and from the front line hundreds of miles away), and raiding (they attacked airfields long before the British Special Air Service thought of it). They also transported allied agents and the SAS on their initial raids behind enemy lines, recovered downed aircrew and lost soldiers, and were the first to accurately map the North African desert. They were often referred to as the ‘Libyan Taxi service’ by those who benefitted from their skills, and were highly respected for their ability to get to any point in the desert at a given time. The LRDG were masters of the Libyan Desert during the War in North Africa. Experts in desert navigation, driving, signals and survival. Their operational requirements were unique in the British Army and initially they chose the civilian 2 wheel drive Chevrolet WA trucks, robust and simple, and with the right driving techniques and equipment capable of passing over the majority of desert terrain encountered. After a year of operations these trucks desperately needed replacing, but there were no more Chevrolets, the best option in North Africa being the CMP Ford F30 with the No11 cab. Like the Chevrolet truck before and after their operational period, the Ford F30’s were modified specifically for LRDG desert operations. The cab was removed for a lower profile, the bonnet panels were usually discarded to allow greater cooling for the engine and transmission, Power take off air compressor fitted to the transmission, a condenser tank added that condensed steam from the radiator to save water, racks for sand mats and channels to help extricate the trucks from soft sand, Vickers MKI (no water can and hose connected, and water jacket filled with oil) and Lewis guns, as well as Boys Anti-Tank Rifle mounts for self-protection and raids, and sand tyres. Another feature is that these early Ford trucks were fitted with Chevrolet ‘Banjo’ type axles due to Ford having initial production issues with their axles. The different makes of axles were designed to be interchangeable on these trucks. There were 3 main variants, the standard Patrol truck, the 37mm Bofors anti-tank gun truck with a special gun mount in the rear body, and the wireless/navigator truck fitted a Bagnold Sun Compass, with a civilian Philips 635 radio receiver for the time signal required for accurate navigation by the stars, and the standard No 11 Wireless set for sending intelligence back to base. When used with the Windom dipole aerial mounted on 16 ‘ /4.6m poles they could often ‘skip’ a signal over a 1,000 miles directly back to Cairo. The Ford F30’s had the advantage of 4 wheel drive, a more powerful 95HP V8 engine, and a bigger load area compared to the Chevrolet trucks. However they were harder to camouflage due to their height, louder with the 4x4 transmission and V8 engine, heavier, had a shorter range due to their poorer MPG (Miles per Gallon) and were less reliable. Some of the trucks had their bodies moved back 12”/300mm on the chassis for better centralisation of the load over the rear axle. These can be identified by 2 spare wheels fitted between the body and the cab.

Airfix Messerschmitt Bf109E-4 (1:72)

Messerschmitt Bf109E-4 Includes: - Detailed plastic kit - Cockpit interior and canopy detailing - Optional Undercarriage (up or down position) - Engine exhaust detail - Waterslide transfers/decals for aircraft flown by:   A) Unteroffizier Hans-Georg Schute, 7./Jagdgeschwader 53, Le Touquet, France, September 1944. - Kit requires paint and glue to complete NOT included - 1:72 scale Aircraft information: The prototype Bf109A first flew in 1935. The later E model was more powerful and better armed and by the summer of 1940, over 500 were in service for the offensive against Great Britain. By this time, the only 109E had already proved to be a competent, if not the world's best fighter aircraft in the skies above Poland, France and the low countries. However, over England it met its match and was shown to be inferior to the RAF's Spitfire.

The silhouette of the compact triplane became a symbol of the German fighter aviation of the First World War, although the aircraft was dogged by technical issue and its operational use was relatively short lived. Designed by Anthony Fokker, the Dr.I was created in response for the German air force requiring a better aircraft to battle the new British Sopwith triplane fighter introduced in April 1917. Fokker with his experience gained from (hugo) Junkers and cantilever wings, he was able to design a wing with reduced drag and eliminating fine wire bracing. A total of 320 Fokker Dr.I planes were built by the end of May 1918 when production final ceased. The Fokker Dr.I was a capable aircraft only finally getting superseded by the Fokker D.VII as aviation design and development improved with more powerful and modern enemy aircraft coming into action. The Fokker Dr.I still saw flight on the frontlines used as backup alongside the modern D.VII. Some of the Triplanes returned to Germany to become trainer aircraft. The most famous pilot of the Dr.I is Manfred Von Richthofen Fokker Dr.I, achieving 17 kills. More information can be found inside the included history booklet/ manual.

Built and developed for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC), the Boeing B-17 "Flying Fortress" was a fast, extremely capable bomber used for some of the most daring missions of WW2.  Serving throughout the Second World War, the B-17 would see further use after the European War, in the Pacific against Japan. The famous WWII US Air Force heavy bomber that inspired two great movies: wartime documentary "Memphis Belle: A Story of a Flying Fortress" and the late 20th Century movie "Memphis Belle".

Kotare Spitfire Mk.I (Early) (1:32)

Spitfire Mk.I (Early) (1:32) There is something intriguing about the earliest Spitfires, maybe because they carry that sense of a design still finding its shape. Kotare’s early Mk I taps into that perfectly. The new tooled parts feel crisp and deliberate, like the engineers wanted to underline just how different these machines were from the later, more familiar variants. You notice it in the smaller things, the subtleties of the airframe, the form of the cockpit fittings, the look of the original equipment that rarely makes it into a mainstream kit.   The kit arrives with 155 parts, and it has that clean Kotare feel where everything fits in a way that encourages you to slow down rather than push on. The instruction book is clear and surprisingly enjoyable to leaf through, almost like someone actually cared about the pacing. Three Cartograf-marked options walk you from the quiet pre-war period into the early war months, including machines flown by Cozens, Feary, Mamedoff, Goodwin, and the remarkable Grumpy Unwin, whose story sits almost literally on your doorstep. It gives the build a sense of connection that is hard to manufacture any other way. 155 injection-moulded parts, including 35 newly tooled components Accurate early-production Mk I features unique to this release 35 cm wingspan with refined surface and rivet detailing Fully illustrated 28-page instruction manual High-quality Cartograf decals for three historically significant schemes Includes optional early-equipment configurations and structural details Suitable for pre-war through Battle of Britain display options The earliest Mk I Spitfires belong to that brief moment when the RAF still felt like it had a little more time than it actually did. Aircraft like K9795 and K9798 were stepping stones towards the wartime Spitfire, flown by pilots who were learning the machine almost as quickly as it was changing beneath them. K9798 carries the story of GC “Grumpy” Unwin, born just behind your warehouse, who entered the RAF as a regular and ended up with more Spitfire hours than anyone else by 1939. These were the pilots doing test flights, deliveries, and long hours in the cockpit, shaping the understanding of what the aircraft could really do. By the time you reach machines like L1065 in 1940, the tension has shifted. Volunteer pilots like AB Mamedoff add to the narrative, and the Spitfire itself is already evolving in response to the pressures of the war. Paint varied, fittings changed, and no two airframes looked exactly alike. This kit captures that transitional period with a kind of quiet respect for the details, letting you build not just an aircraft but a snapshot of a world on the cusp of something much heavier.

Tamiya U.S. Multiple Gun Motor Carriage M16 Half Track (1:35)

Multiple Gun Motor Carriage M16 Half Track Includes: - Detailed plastic kit - Realistic wheel, Track suspension and vehicle ladder underframe detailing - Quadruple 12.7mm Browning heavy machine guns - Positioning turret - Vehicle and Figure Accessories - Three Figures in realistic poses - Waterslide transfers/decals - Kit requires glue and paint to complete NOT included - 1:35 Scale  Vehicle information and history: The progress of the air force and the improved mobility made with the mechanization of the ground troops greatly changed the way battles were fought during World War II. With this in mind, many kinds of anti-aircraft weapons were developed to fight against enemy aircraft attacks, which led to fierce battles seen at every front. One such anti-aircraft machine seen during WWII was the M16 self propelled gun which was manufactured from 1942 to 1943. Fitted on the M3 half-track chassis was the quad mounted 50-caliber (12.7mm) Browning automatic heavy machine gun, which had an 893m/s muzzle velocity, 6,767m range, and a discharging rate of 450-555 rounds per minute, which earned it the nickname of "the meat chopper." The Type M45 gun mount could rotate 360 degrees and elevate between -10 and +90 degrees and was electrically driven which allowed it to move 60 degrees of rotation/elevation per second. Not only was it greatly effective against enemy aircraft, it was also very influential on the ground attack. Even after WWII, the M16 was also deployed with the Japanese Ground Self Defense Forces during the Korean War.

Airfix Fairey Gannet AS1AS4 (1:48)

Fairey Gannet AS1AS4 Includes: - Highly detailed plastic kit - Extensive cockpit and interior detail - Pilots included - Distinctive prop/ blades - Body panelling and rivet detail - Optional undercarriage (Up or down positions) - Waterslide transfers/decals - Kit requires glue and paint to complete NOT included - 1:48 Scale  Aircraft information and history: An aircraft that must surely be considered one of the most distinctive types to have ever seen Fleet Air Arm service, the Fairey Gannet was as capable as it was unique and was significant as the only post-war military contract to be won by the famous Fairey Aviation Company. Arguably the most unconventional Fairey designed aircraft to enter full production, the Gannet was developed in response to a 1945 Royal Navy requirement for an advanced carrier-based, turboprop-powered anti-submarine hunter-killer, one which was rugged enough to withstand the rigors of operation at sea.  Intended to counter the recent expansion of the Soviet submarine fleet at the start of the Cold War era, the Gannet was equipped with all manner of the latest electronic detection equipment and if an enemy submarine was detected, it could be marked, tracked, and if necessary, attacked, using bombs, depth charges, rockets, and air-launched acoustic torpedoes. One feature of the Gannet which helped to give it a unique appearance was the adoption of its powerplant, the innovative Armstrong Siddeley Double Mamba. This arrangement saw two gas turbine engines mounted side by side in the nose of the gannet, sharing a common gearbox, but both operating independently, each engine driving its own coaxially mounted, contra-rotating propeller. In addition to this, the engines could run on kerosene and even diesel fuel, which was safer to handle and less refined than traditional aviation fuels.  This arrangement provided Gannet crews with more than enough power for carrier operations, with the reassurance of two engines when embarking on long ocean patrols. Once in flight, the pilot could shut down one of the engines to conserve fuel and whilst this would reduce the Gannet's maximum speed, it would extend its loiter capabilities. Usually, a pilot would alternate engine use during a long patrol, running each engine for around an hour before swapping to the other engine - the engine mounted on the port side drove the front propeller. Another unique feature of the Gannet's design was its bi-folding wing system, something which was designed to allow this large aircraft to operate safely and to be stored aboard one of the Royal Navy's relatively small aircraft carriers. When a pilot engaged the wing unfold, this ingenious system not only prepared the wings for flight, but also automatically connected all flight control systems, hydraulic connections and fuel pipes to the main system, without any ground crew intervention.  In operation, there are reports that the Gannet was so rugged a design that when one aircraft lost the outer sections of both wings after performing a particularly violent manoeuvre, the aircraft still managed to make it back safely to its home carrier, something which can only have endeared the aircraft to its crews still further. The Fairey Gannet would prove to be an extremely rugged and highly effective anti-submarine aircraft, one which could carry an impressive array of offensive ordnance and one which was able to attack submarines either on the surface, or when submerged and trying to evade its attentions. Well-liked by air and ground crews alike, 348 Gannets would eventually be produced and in addition to serving with Britain's Fleet Air Arm, the aircraft would also see service with the navies of Australia, Germany and Indonesia.

Airfix Blackburn Buccaneer S2 RAF (1:48)

Blackburn Buccaneer S2 RAF (1:48) Includes: - Detailed plastic kit - Cockpit detailing includes pilot - Optional undercarriage (up or down positions) - Optional flaps on rear (for parachute deployment) - Armament detailing - Waterslide transfers/decals - Kit requires glue and paint to complete NOT included - 1:48 Scale Aircraft information and history: Entering RAF service some seven years after it had with the Royal Navy, the Blackburn Company received an initial order for 26 new aircraft, with RAF machines having a number of differences from their seaborne counterparts and designated S.Mk.2B. For an aircraft the Royal Air Force didn’t really want, the Buccaneer proved to be an exceptionally capable machine and by the time they were scheduled for retirement, they were reluctant to let them go. Although they were forced to take a naval aircraft they had originally dismissed, it didn’t take long before the camouflaged Buccaneers of the RAF began to show why this was definitely not a second rate aircraft option.

Airfix Vickers Wellington Mk IA C (1:72)

Vickers Wellington Mk IA C (1:72) Includes: - Detailed plastic kit - Cockpit detail includes pilots - Engine and prop detail - Optional undercarriage (up or down positions) - Turret detail - Waterslide transfers/ decals for two schemes:   - (A)    - (B)  - Kit requires glue and paint to complete NOT included - 1:72 Scale Aircraft information and history: The most capable medium bomber of the day was the twin-engine Vickers Wellington, which first flew in 1936 and entered RAF service with No.99 Squadron at Mildenhall in October 1938. The production aircraft bore little resemblance to the prototype aircraft and compared to contemporary medium bombers already in service, the Wellington appeared to be much more advanced in design and an aircraft feared by any potential enemy. Its sleek monoplane design and heavy defensive armament placed the new Wellington as one the advanced and capable medium bombers in the world. Perhaps the most significant feature of the Wellingtons design was the adoption of a geodetic construction method, which was developed by famous British engineer and inventor Barnes Wallis. Duralumin W-beams were used to form a metal lattice-work construction on to which wooden battens would be screwed, which would then allow the doped fabric outer skin of the aircraft to be attached.  The resultant fuselage was relatively light in weight but possessed great strength and whilst the method o construction posed challenged for companies engaged in manufacturing Wellington bombers, the inherent strength proved crucial when the aircraft was thrust into combat.  Capable of withstanding significant battle damage, numerous RAF Wellingtons managed to bring their crews back home, when the other bombers would have failed to do so.

Airfix North American B-25C D Mitchell (1:72)

North American B-25C D Mitchell  Includes: - Detailed plastic kit - Cockpit detail and glazing - Pilots included - Optional undercarriage (Up or down positions) - Engine and prop detail - Gun turrets - Body panel lines - Waterslide transfers/decals for 2 new schemes:   - (A)    - (B)  - Kit requires glue and paint to complete NOT included - 1:72 Scale Aircraft information and history: The role of medium bomber proved to be one of the most crucial during the Second World War and after something of a challenging service introduction, the North American B-25 Mitchell developed into a highly successful aircraft. Seeing service in every theatre of operation, the B-25 was the most versatile aircraft of its type, fulfilling a multitude of tactical roles in many different operating environments.  Arguably, the most famous action involving the North American B-25 Mitchell came just after 8am on 18th April 1942, when sixteen of the bombers lifted off the relatively short deck of USS Hornet and set course for Japan. Intended as a strike at the heart of the Japanese Empire who had infamously attacked the US Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor, this audacious and heroic raid illustrated the resolve of the American people and the determination of their military forces to strive for victory. The early B-25B aircraft used on the Doolittle Raid performed well, but were already in the process of being upgraded. The later C/D model (different letters were used to denote the manufacturer) proved to be the definitive version of this extremely effective medium bomber and was the first truly mass produced version of the aircraft. An extremely rugged and versatile aircraft, the Mitchell saw service as an anti-submarine patrol aircraft off the coast of Florida and as a strike bomber in the deserts of North Africa, proving successful at both. Some of the later versions of the B-25 became the most heavily armed aircraft of the war, with no less than 18 machine guns and an array of other offensive weaponry. With a solid nose housing 8 heavy guns, these aircraft were lethal gunships, capable of destroying anything in its line of fire.

Tamiya Kawasaki Ninja ZX-12R (1:12)

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-12R (1:12) Kawasaki's legacy of cutting-edge sportbikes has inspired motorcycle fans for generations. Recently, the call for 300km/h plus super sports bikes has motivated several manufactures to bring out powerful contenders. Kawasaki answered the call at the 1999 Paris Motorcycle Show, with the impressive debut of their all-new Ninja ZX-12R. This Ninja was reportedly created in the image of a fighter plane, which comes as no surprise considering that its slippery aerodynamics involved the cooperation of the Aerospace Division of Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. In fact, the ZX-12R spent more time in the wind tunnel during its development phase than any motorcycle in Kawasaki's history. The results are evident: small winglets on the sides of the fairing separate airflow around the bike; small wind deflectors on the lower forks deflect turbulent air from the engine; a long lip on the edge of the fairing further smooths out airflow. Also, projecting just ahead of the front fairing, a large scoop takes advantage of higher air pressure, heightening intake efficiency. A monocoque frame backbone creates an airbox that allows air to pass through the inside of the bike for cooling in addition to ensuring overall rigidity. The powerplant of the Ninja ZX-12R is a fuel injected 4-cylinder 1,199cc engine that pumps out an abundant 178hp. Its four-into-two-into-one exhaust system features a titanium muffler paired with a catalyzer, which helps eliminate unburned hydrocarbons for cleaner emissions. Kawasaki brilliantly raised the superbike standard in performance, power and aerodynamics with their series flagship, the Ninja ZX-12R. Includes: - Highly detailed plastic kit - Cowling can be removed - Solid rubber tyres with authentic tread pattern - Finely sculpted chain highlight rear suspension. - Brake lights come as semi-transparent red parts and turning signals come as semi-transparent orange parts, offering a quality look even without painting  - Pre coloured plastic parts - Waterslide transfers/decals - Kit requires glue and paint to complete NOT included  - 1:12 Scale

Introduced after the end of the Second World War, the Sea Fury would see combat against some of the early jet fighters during the Korean War, where it would perform extremely well. The first deck landing trials commenced in the winter of 1946. The Sea Fury would remain as the Fleet Air Arms principle single-seater fighter until 1953, when it was then replaced by the jet-powered Hawker Sea Hawk.  The aircraft also saw service with a number of overseas air arms, in a variety of operational roles, including strike fighter, trainer and high-speed target towing. The aircraft also became a popular choice in the world of air racing, where the brute power and sheer speed of this magnificent aircraft saw it victorious in countless competitions.

(A) - Kit requires glue and paint to complete NOT included - 1:72 scale Aircraft Information and History: When the Japanese Zero first entered service in 1940, it was without doubt the most advanced naval fighter in the world and quickly earned a reputation as a ruthless dogfighter. In early engagements, the Zero proved so effective that pilots were able to post an almost unbelievable victory ratio of 12 to 1 against their adversaries. As the Wehrmacht began its march across Europe in 1940, little attention was being given to developments in the Far East. Following years of re-arming and upgrading, the Japanese Navy could boast some of the most advanced naval aircraft in the world within its inventory, including the superb Mitsubishi A6M Zero. This long range Naval fighter would be at the forefront of Japan's expansionist ambitions throughout WWII and in the early war years, proved to be unequalled in the Pacific region.  The Zero also quickly earned a reputation as a dogfighter and Allied pilots quickly learned to avoid a slow, turning fight with this beautifully balanced aircraft. American pilots soon developed tactics that avoided playing into the hands of the Zero and began to score victories.  As newer fighters began to enter service, the A6M Zero began to show its weaknesses, which were a lack of armour protection for the pilot and no self-sealing fuel tanks in the wing. Using their boom and zoom hit and run tactics, the Americans finally began to get the measure of the feared Zero.

Airfix Gift Set: 617 SQN. Dambusters 80th Anniversary (1:72)

Dambusters 80th Anniversary - Gift Set As the first of 20 modified Avro Lancasters arrived at RAF Scampton on 8th April 1943, the specially assembled volunteer crews of specialist 'Squadron X' (later allocated the RAF squadron number 617) from within 5 Group Bomber Command must have been intrigued. The new aircraft were B.III (Specials), referred to at Avro's Woodford factory as Lancaster Type 464 Provisioning and each one had been modified with equipment to deliver the Vickers Type 464 'Upkeep' mine. Although the mines had not been delivered to Scampton at that time, talk amongst the crews inevitably turned to discussing their intended target, with most assuming they would be sent to attack the massive German battleship Tirpitz. As more Lancaster's arrived, the commander of this new squadron, Wing Commander Guy Gibson, selected Lancaster ED932/AJ-G as his own aircraft, due to the fact that the bomber's codes were the same as his father's initials, Alexander James Gibson. Gibson and the crew of ED932 were amongst the first to train with their new aircraft and their unusual bombs, releasing their mines at a test site at Reculver on the north Kent coast from 12th May 1943, just five days before crews embarked on their historic raid. After a period of intense training and on the day prior to the raid, Gibson was finally briefed on the intended targets - 'Operation Chastise' would be striking at the industrial heart of Germany, the great dams of the Ruhr Valley. At 21.39 on 16th May 1943, Gibson and Lancaster ED932 took off from RAF Scampton at the head of the first attack wave of nine Lancasters heading for the Mohne Dam, flying a route over Suffolk, then the North Sea, crossing the Dutch coast at Zeeland, before heading inland attempting to avoid known areas of Luftwaffe defences. As Gibson and his crew made their attack run on the Mohne Dam, the other Lancasters of the first wave circled the target area, watching the effectiveness of the attack run and waiting for the instruction to commence their own attack. Having released their mine, Gibson and his crew flew alongside the other aircraft during their attacks, attempting to draw enemy fire away from the attacking aircraft, giving them the best chance of effecting a breach. The fifth mine dropped was a perfect run and exploded in exactly the right place to cause the already weakened dam to fail – they had done it. In the years which followed, this incredible operation was referred to as the 'Dambusters Raid' and No.617 Squadron would become one of the RAF's most famous units. 'Operation Chastise' was heralded as a spectacular success for Bomber Command, but at a heavy cost, as eight Lancasters and 53 airmen failed to return. Includes: - Detailed plastic kits of F-35B Lightning and Avro Lancaster - Cockpit detailing includes Pilots - Optional undercarriage (up or down positions) - Lancaster Features the famous "Bouncing Bomb" designed and developed by Sir Barnes Wallis - Armament detailing - Waterslide transfers/decals - 2x Display stands - Glue, paints and brushes included - 1:72 Scale

Airfix Starter Set: F-35B Lightning II (1:72)

F-35B Lightning II (1:72) As one of the most advanced aircraft in the world, the Lockheed Martin® F-35B® Lightning® is a fifth generation multi-role combat aircraft designed to dominate the skies, using stealth technologies to operate undetected in hostile airspace, striking at the heart of the enemy, or relaying vital battlefield information to other friendly forces.  The United Kingdom has elected to take the short take-off and vertical landing (STOVL) 'B' variant of the F-35, allowing their aircraft to operate from traditional airfields, from the decks of Britain’s two new Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carriers and should the need arise, from dispersed locations, in much the same way as the famous Harrier previously did.  In British service, the F-35 will not carry the Lightning II denotation, as the new jet is actually the third aircraft in RAF service to carry the name, after the Lockheed P-38 from the Second World War and the famous English Electric Lightning which served throughout the Cold War era. Includes: - Detailed plastic kit - Cockpit detail/interior including pilot - Option mould for thruster in vertical or horizontal flight - Optional undercarriage (up or down positions) - Waterslide transfers/decals - Glue, paint and brushes  - 1:72 Scale  

Airfix Hawker Tempest Mk.V Post War (1:72)

Hawker Tempest Mk.V Post War Condition Aircraft information and history: An aircraft which has to be considered one of the finest aeroplanes of the Second World War, the Hawker Tempest V could trace its design lineage back to the Hurricane fighters which proved so decisive during the Battle of Britain only two years earlier, but would represent the absolute zenith of piston engined fighter design. Indeed, when accomplished designer Sydney Camm was looking to produce his '˜Super Hurricane'™ replacement for the aviation saviour of the Battle of Britain, the aircraft he surely had in mind was the Tempest V. As it was, the Tempest is often confused with its predecessor in Royal Air Force service, the Typhoon, even though the two are very different aeroplanes.  The original fighter replacement for the Hawker Hurricane was the Typhoon, an aircraft which attempted to combine the most powerful piston engine available at the time with a small, yet strong and heavily armed airframe. Although intended as an interceptor fighter, it became apparent during development that the new aircraft would not be able to fulfil this role, as the thickness of the wing was not conducive to high performance at high altitude. In fact, the Typhoon would endure quite a troubled development and service introduction, to the point where cancellation of the programme was seriously considered at one time. Nevertheless, the Typhoon would eventually go on to find its aviation niche as a hard-hitting ground attack aircraft and one which would come into its own during the time of the Allied invasion of Normandy.  Aware that their Typhoon had great potential but was in need of improvement, the Hawker design team started work on a new fighter project, one which incorporated many of the same philosophies as Typhoon, but also, several significant modifications. Indeed, the new aircraft was initially referred to as the Typhoon Mark II, but this was changed to Tempest as the prototype aircraft'™s first flight approached. Although this was still a big aeroplane for a single engined fighter, its airframe was light and it would be powered by the massively powerful 24 cylinder Napier Sabre engine, a powerplant which would give the new fighter spectacular performance. Making its first flight on 2nd September 1942, the new Hawker Tempest featured a newly designed laminar flow wing, which was much thinner than the wing used on its predecessor and allowed the new fighter to slip through the air at incredible speed.  At first glance, the Typhoon and Tempest do share many similarities, however, if you know where to look, it is not difficult to tell them apart. Without doubt, the wing is the most obvious distinguishing feature, as not only is this thinner than the one used on the Typhoon, it is also a completely different shape. With a straighter leading edge and more elliptical trailing edge, the Tempest'™s wing was designed for speed, even though it could still be used effectively in a ground attack role. Other Tempest design differences include a slightly longer nose and a tail section which appears to be much larger, with a more generous vertical stabiliser which features a pronounced dorsal fillet. During the prototype aircraft'™s maiden flight, it posted an impressive top speed of 477 mph in level flight, impressing both the design team and the watching Air Ministry.  The Hawker Tempest V entered Royal Air Force service in early 1944, with the first two squadrons to receive the type having both previously operated the Typhoon. It was thought that managing the incredible power generated by the Tempest'™s engine could pose problems for pilots converting from smaller aircraft types and that former Typhoon units would be best placed to negotiate its squadron introduction. In advance of the D-day landings, Tempests were being used in a similar ground attack role to the one being flown so effectively by Typhoon squadrons, however, should it be required to make the shift to air combat operations mid-mission, the Tempest was much more suited to this task. Possessing significantly greater range than the Typhoon, Tempests could loiter in the combat zone for longer periods, allowing offensive strikes deeper into occupied Europe, or allowing pilots to wait patiently for the Luftwaffe to come up and fight, where they could show them what their new fighter could really do.  As the fastest Allied fighter at low and medium altitudes, Tempest squadrons were held back for home defence duties in the weeks which followed the successful D-day landings, due to the onslaught of a sinister new weapon, the V-1 '˜Doodlebug'™ pulse jet flying bomb. The Tempest proved to be an excellent V-1 killer, using the speed of the fighter, effectiveness of its guns and bravery of its pilots to destroy large numbers of these terrifying weapons before they could wreak their havoc on British towns and cities. Britain'™s most effective force against these indiscriminate weapons, hundreds of Doodlebugs were shot down by the RAF'™s Hawker Tempest V squadrons, with Squadron Leader Joseph Berry proving to be the most proficient at this work, with no fewer than 61 V-1 '˜kills'™ to his name.  With the V-1 threat diminishing, the RAF'™s Tempest V squadrons were free to embark on aggressive seek and destroy missions into occupied Europe, using the speed, range and firepower of their latest fighter to great effect. Looking for potential V-1 launch sites and increasingly, the new German jet fighters which had started operating against the Allied air forces, the Tempest began to show that it was undoubtedly one of the most capable fighting aeroplanes in the world. Indeed, it has been reported that the aggressively flown Tempest was the Allied aircraft Messerschmitt Me262 jet pilots most feared during those early days of jet powered operations, particularly if they were caught during the landing and taking off phases of flight, when their jets were much more vulnerable.  There is no doubt that the Hawker Tempest V was a real brute of an aeroplane, fast, heavily armed and possessing performance which could better any fighter the Luftwaffe had in service, perhaps with the exception of the Me262 at full speed. Pilots who had experience flying both the Tempest V and its predecessor, the Typhoon, describe the difference as being like night and day - they actually said that it was like comparing a cart horse with a race horse. Although this seems a little harsh, as they flew the aircraft in combat, we should certainly bow to their judgement. Although appearing relatively late in WWII, the Tempest V still takes its place as one of the most effective piston engined fighters of the Second World War and was perhaps the '˜Super Hurricane'™ designer Sydney Camm had always envisaged developing.

Tamiya M4A3 Sherman w 105mm Howitzer (1:35)

M4A3 Sherman w 105mm Howitzer  Excelling in both reliability and sheer production capability, the M4 Sherman series of tanks became the staple fighting-vehicles of the WWII Allies. The first version to be produced, the cast-hull M4A1, was succeeded by the welded-hull M4, the diesel engine M4A2, and finally the most widely-known tank of the series, the M4A3. Three types of main armament were used on the M4A3: on the initial production types, the 75mm main gun and on the subsequent types, the 76mm main gun for heightened penetration. Finally, to provide heavy fire support for assaults on enemy outposts, the powerful 105mm howitzer was later adopted. The 105mm howitzer was carried in a M52 combination mount and a vision cupola was fitted for the commander with a small hatch for the loader. It could fire M1 shells at angles from -10 to +35 degrees at a maximum range of 11,500m. About 500 of the M4A3 (105mm) were produced at the Chrysler factory in Detroit from May to September 1944. From September 1944 horizontal volute spring suspension was introduced on the M4A3 (105mm) together with the wider center-guide T66 tracks. The M4A3 (105mm) were deployed to European Theatre from July 1944, and played an indispensable role in the destruction of enemy positions by the U.S. infantry fighting on the front lines.

Tamiya Suzuki RGV- XR89 (1:12)

SUZUKI RGV- XR89 The opening round of the 500cc class 1999 World Road Race Championships was set ablaze in the heat of the Malaysian GP. Although it was Team Honda that was said to have the advantage in the opening race of the season, they would be denied victory by young rider, Kenny Roberts, Jr. and the rest of the Suzuki team. New to the Suzuki team, Roberts, Jr. secured a third place finish in the qualifying round before burning rubber to a victory which surprised everyone, especially Team Honda. Proving his triumph was no fluke, Roberts, Jr. went on to win the second round too, this time on the rain soaked course of the Japan GP. On his way to the checkered flag in Japan, Roberts, Jr. was also successful in beating out five year champion Honda NSR rider, Michael Doohan. The 1999 version of the RGV-Gamma is known as the XR89. Its development centered on creating greater overall balance to unlock its maneuverability and cornering speed. The V-type 4-cylinder engine of XR89 model is cradled by a lightweight, aluminum twin-tube frame.

Tamiya WWII Wehrmacht Infantry Set (1:48)

WWII Wehrmacht Infantry Set The M36 uniform was the staple of Wehrmacht infantry in WWII, in field gray fabric with green collar. However, as the war continued and simpler designs were required, other uniforms became an increasingly common sight. Likewise, the style of boots was also to evolve. Soldiers carried such equipment as pouches, gas mask case, canteen, shovel and rounds; infantry were given the Kar98k rifle or an MG34/MG42 machine gun, and NCOs the MP40 submachine gun. NCOs and machine gunners also carried a pistol. Includes: - Pack of detailed plastic figures - 10x figures in various poses including NCO scanning, Machine gunners, seated infantry - Accessories and weapons include Kar98k rifles, MG34 and MG42 machine guns, MP40 submachine and more. - Figures and accessories require glue and paint to complete (NOT included) - 1:48 Scale

Airfix Junkers Ju-87 B-1 Stuka (1:72)

Junkers Ju-87 B-1 Stuka Although usually associated with the Wehrmachts feared Lightning War attacks at the beginning of WWII, the Ju87B Stuka was also a highly effective maritime strike bomber. Capable of performing precision dive bombing attacks against any Allied vessel, the Stuka took a heavy toll of shipping in the English Channel, North Africa and in the Mediterranean. The Stuka also saw service with the air forces of Italy, Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary, as well as remaining in Luftwaffe service throughout WWII. The attack dive of the Stuka was so severe, that quite a number of automatic features had to be incorporated into the manoeuvre. At an altitude of approximately 15,000 ft., the pilot would locate his target through a bombsight window, which was located in the floor of the cockpit. His engine and propeller had automatic controls, to optimise the aircraft when in a dive, and an automatic trimmer would make the aircraft tail heavy, as the pilot initiated the dive. He would move the dive lever to the rear, which would limit the kick of the control column and quickly begin a defined sequence of actions, which if done correctly, would see his ordnance detonate on his intended target. He quickly set the trim tabs, reduced the throttle and closed the engine coolant flaps. The aircraft would automatically become tail heavy and pitch over in a 180-degree roll, placing the aircraft in a steep nose-down dive at the same time, dive breaks were automatically deployed, to reduce the speed of the dive, to a constant 360 mph. This was the point of no return as the attack sequence had begun. As the strain on the body of the pilot increased, he still had much work to do. The angle of his dive could be checked by looking at a series of red lines on the side of his cockpit window and lining them up against the horizon 60, 75, or 80 degree angle of attack. He would then look forward through the fixed gun sight, to line up his attack, before releasing his heavy main bomb - the optimum release height was indicated to the pilot, by a light flicking on in his altimeter. The bomb was carried on a large U-shaped cradle, which would swing down on release, throwing the bomb safely clear of the large propeller and on to the target. As all this action was taking place, the pilot would have certainly had at least a couple of reassuring glances at the red pins protruding up from the top of the wings, which informed him that the automatic dive recovery system was engaged, should he fall victim to a g-induced black-out. All this would have been taking place in just a matter of a few, frantic seconds! Once the bombs had left the aircraft, it automatically began its dive recovery sequence. This was the point at which the maximum g loading on the crew would be felt and forces in excess of six times the force of gravity were regularly experienced, which could result in vision impairment at the very least. Once recovered and the nose of the aircraft was above the horizon, the dive breaks were automatically retracted, the throttle was opened and the propeller was set to climb the pilot then quickly had to manually open the coolant flaps, to prevent the engine from overheating and then resume flying the aircraft. This was the point that the Stuka was at its most vulnerable, flying at low level, at relatively slow speed and in hostile territory. His rear gunner may still be blacked out and indeed the pilot might still be feeling a little light headed, but every anti-aircraft gun, rifle and enemy fighter in the vicinity would be taking pot-shots at them, from every angle.

Airfix Curtiss P-40B Warhawk (1:48)

Curtiss P-40B Warhawk Aircraft information and history: During the early stages of WWII, the American built Curtiss P-40B proved to be one of the most important fighter aircraft available to Allied Air Forces. Flying with the RAF in North Africa and the American Volunteer Group in China, the Allison V-1710-33 powered P-40B was to became one of the most distinctive fighters of the entire war, wearing their fearsome shark-mouth artwork.Arguably, the most striking versions of the P-40 were the early machines, which displayed an extremely sinister profile '”œ with a shorter, more pointed nose and an extremely throaty Allison V-1710 engine, the P-40B (Tomahawk IIa in RAF service) aircraft looked almost like flying Great White sharks. When RAF No.112 Squadron of the Desert Air Force added aggressive looking sharks teeth and eyes to their aircraft in 1941, they inadvertently turned their Tomahawks into some of the most iconic aircraft of WWII and certainly some of the most visually appealing. These designs would find their way on to many different aircraft throughout the remainder of the war, but the RAF Desert Air Force certainly started the trend. Includes: - Detailed plastic kit - Extensive cockpit detail including Opening Canopy, Pilot and interior detail - Optional undercarriage (Up or down positions) - Engine and exhaust detail - Body including flap, rudder details  - Armament detail - Waterslide transfers/decals - Kit requires glue and paint to complete (NOT included) - 1:48 scale

It was armed with no fewer than five machine guns and had additional tanks for 135 l. of fuel.

Airfix Blackburn Buccaneer S.2C/D (1:48)

Blackburn Buccaneer S.2C/D A mighty naval strike aircraft which can trace its origins back to Britain's response to a massive naval expansion programme by the Soviet Navy in the 1950s and the introduction of their Sverdlov Class Cruisers, the Blackburn Buccaneer was designed to have exceptional low altitude performance and the ability to effectively neutralise this new naval threat. Required to operate from the relatively confined space aboard one of Britain's aircraft carriers, this subsonic strike jet was the most capable aircraft of its kind in the world and a real triumph for Britain's aviation industry - it also happened to be the heaviest aircraft ever operated by the Royal Navy. In order to allow its effective operation at sea, the Buccaneers design not only included the ability to fold its wings, but also the nose (radar housing) and rear speed brake could be folded back and split open respectively, allowing for more effective carrier stowage, whilst maintaining the aerodynamic integrity of the aircraft. Entering Royal Navy service in July 1962, there were no two seat trainer versions of the Buccaneer, so even though the pilot would have had the benefit of several flights as a back seat observer in the new aircraft, his first flight as pilot would therefore be his Buccaneer solo. Thankfully, the Blackburn designers included many hi-tech automated features in the Buccaneer's roomy cockpit, all of which were intended to reduce pilot workload. There is something aviation enthusiasts find particularly fascinating about the operation of aircraft at sea and the intrepid aviators who flew aeroplanes from the heaving decks of aircraft carriers under steam, particularly when aviation entered the jet age. The unforgiving nature of these operations dictated that naval aircraft had to be extremely tough, in addition to being capable of carrying out the mission for which they were required, attributes the Blackburn Buccaneer possessed in abundance.  The introduction of the S.2 variant of the aircraft in late 1965 saw a major upgrade of the Buccaneer's capabilities, but centred around the adoption of a new powerplant, the famous Rolls Royce Spey turbofan. Possessing greater thrust and increased range, the Buccaneer S.2 was an even more capable naval strike aircraft and one which must have struck fear into the hearts of every Soviet naval commander. With its increased power, the S.2 was now able to land back on its home carrier with one engine shut down if required, but still having enough thrust to safely go around again, should the aircraft fail to catch the arrestor hook. The Buccaneers of No.800 Naval Air Squadron were famously involved in the destruction of the stricken oil tanker Torrey Canyon, off Land's End in March 1967, as the government attempted to avert an environmental catastrophe by breaking open the vessel and burning its flammable cargo. Operating from RAF Brawdy, eight Buccaneers from No.800 NAS dropped 42,000 lbs of high explosive bombs on the tanker, achieving an impressive 75% success rate.

Designed to fulfil an RAF specification, the Mustang was transformed once the Rolls Royce Merlin engine was installed. The P-51D model's long range and excellent firepower made it a superb escort fighter, able to protect the bombers all the way to Berlin and back. The P-51 is recorded as being the top scoring Allied fighter of the war with 4,950 enemy aircraft destroyed. In 1948 the type designation for the Mustang changed to F-51D and it continued in USAF and RAAF service as a ground attack aircraft through the Korean War.

Looking absolutely resplendent in its all-over white ‘Anti-Flash’ paint finish and proudly wearing its Royal Air Force insignia, what the Avro engineers had managed to produce was not only the world’s first delta bomber, but also the most advanced bomber in the world at that time. - Kit requires glue and paint to complete NOT included - 1:72 Scale  Aircraft information and history: Occupying a significant position in the history of post war British aviation, the Avro Vulcan was without doubt one of the most distinctive aircraft ever to take to the skies, with its huge delta wing profile becoming almost as iconic as the elliptical wing of the Supermarine Spitfire. Built to satisfy an extremely demanding Air Ministry requirement for a fast, high altitude strategic bomber, capable of carrying a special payload of 10,000 imperial pounds in weight (a nuclear device), the new aircraft was intended to serve as an airborne deterrent to any future military threat against the UK, with the required specifications representing a 100% increase in the capabilities of any previous British bomber aircraft. When the Vulcan made its maiden flight in August 1952, the Avro team were well on the way to presenting the Royal Air Force with not only the worlds first delta bomber, but also one of the worlds most effective strike bombers. Interestingly, all this was achieved just nine years since the Avro Lancasters of RAF No.617 Squadron had launched their famous raid against the great dams of the Ruhr Valley. As the Avro Vulcan entered squadron service with No.83 Squadron at RAF Waddington in July 1957, Britain now possessed the fastest nuclear capable bomber in the world. It seems strange to describe an aircraft which possessed such potential for untold destruction as Britain's most effective peace keeping asset, however, that is exactly what the Vulcan turned out to be. Throughout the aggressive posturing of the Cold War, the Warsaw Pact nations were in no doubt that if they dared to launch an attack against a NATO member country, the consequences of the inevitable retaliatory strike would be catastrophic. Without Doubt, during the early years of its service career, nothing represented this doomsday scenario more effectively than the mighty Avro Vulcan. As the Royal Air Force exhaustively trained their new Vulcan crews to provide Britain with an effective Quick Reaction Alert strike force, Avro engineers were already working to improve the capabilities of their original, iconic design. In order to ensure the aircraft continued to maintain its effective deterrent threat and stayed one step ahead of advances in Easter Bloc fighter and surface-to-air missile technology, designers incorporated developments which endowed the aircraft with greater range, speed and altitude performance. The installation of more powerful versions of the Vulcans Bristol Olympus engines would result in a number of unforeseen stability issues with these first bombers, which concerned designers enough to necessitate a re-design of the original wing shape. By the time the definitive B.2 variant of the Vulcan entered service, the aircrafts wing area had increased significantly and although still classed as a delta, would look quite different from the first bombers which entered service. To cope with the increased power availability from subsequent engine upgrades and to cure the instability issues of the original straight wing design, the B.2 wing had two defined kinks in its leading edge, well forward of the profile of the original wing design. Rather than detract from the pleasing aesthetics of the early Vulcans delta wing, the B.2 actually enhanced the profile of the aircraft and even though these changes were obviously made for reasons of operational effectiveness, as opposed to appearance, the B.2 would go on to be considered the most famous (and most numerous) of all the RAFs Vulcans. The service introduction of the Vulcan B.2 in July 1960 coincided with the availability of more capable nuclear weapons for the V-bomber force, both in number and destructive potential. It would also bring about a change in thinking regarding the delivery of such weapons, as significant advances in Soviet anti-aircraft technology now threatened the success of a free-fall gravity bomb mission. A significant new weapon would have to be developed in order to maintain the deterrent threat of the Vulcan and its V-bomber partners. Developed to maintain the validity of Britain's nuclear deterrent threat, designers at Avro produced the powerful Blue Steel air-launched, nuclear stand-off missile, which would allow V-bomber crews to launch their attacks 100 miles away from their intended target and out of the range of Soviet surface-to-air missile batteries, allowing crews valuable additional time to avoid the resultant blast. Further boosting the effectiveness of the V-bomber force, the arrival of Blue Steel raised the nuclear stakes in Britains favour once more and would have caused much consternation amongst the Warsaw Pact nations. The responsibility of providing Britain's strategic nuclear deterrent passed to the submarines of the Royal Navy in July 1969 and saw the RAF performing its final V-bomber Blue Steel mission late the following year. Although taking on a more conventional strike role, RAF Vulcans would retain a nuclear capability and maintain their position as one of the worlds most effective bombers for the next fourteen years, before finally being withdrawn from service. Due to the affection in which this aircraft was held by the British public, the Vulcan Display Flight was almost immediately formed to operate one aircraft on the UK Airshow circuit for a further nine years, before itself being disbanded. To the amazement of the historic aviation world, the last flying Avro Vulcan, XH558, the aircraft which had previously served as the Vulcan Display Flight aircraft, triumphantly returned to the air once more, this time in the hands of a civilian organisation in October 2007. Over the course of the next eight years, the Vulcan thrilled millions of people around the country, becoming something of an aviation national treasure a relic of the Cold War which was held in great public affection.

Airfix D-Day Operation Overlord Set (1:76)

D-Day Operation Overlord Set Early on the morning of June 6th 1944 the combined forces of the Allied armies landed on the Normandy beaches in Northern France in the most ambitious and important operation of the Second World War. With airborne troops already on the ground and fighting, the sea-borne element of the force began landing. This phase of the operation was codenamed Neptune and consisted of five invasion beaches, three British and Canadian (Sword, Gold and Juno) and two American beaches (Omaha and Utah). The landings themselves were preceded both by a powerful air attack and by a fierce naval artillery barrage from a vast armada of ships anchored off-shore. The majority of the beaches were taken with casualties, but no severe losses, except for Omaha where the American troops were pinned down after the naval bombardment failed to destroy the German defences. But even this obstacle was overcome and once the beach-heads were secure, Allied troops and equipment were quickly brought ashore, ready to continue on and liberate the occupied countries of Western Europe and ultimately to defeat Germany and win the war.
