1/48 Scale Plastic model kit
Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I RAF 1940
Enter a Legend
The iconic Spitfire fighter was one of the backbones of the RAF in the
desperate struggle for the skies during WWII,
sporting a refined design and aesthetically pleasing elliptical wing,
plus the proven Rolls Royce Merlin engine.
It first flew in March 1936, and some two and a half years later in
August 1938 the first production Spitfires - the Mk.I - started to reach
units.
This Mk.I would have a vital role to play in the Battle of Britain as
the RAF and Luftwaffe played out a titanic struggle for the skies,
and the successful fighting off of the Luftwaffe ensured that the
Spitfire earned international fame that continues even in the modern
day. |
