Plastic Model Kits
Aircraft 1/48 Scale

The Blackburn Skua was a strange aircraft. It combined the roles of both fighter and dive bomber, but performed neither role successfully. Despite this, the Skua held several firsts. It claimed the first recorded shoot-down of a German aircraft in WWII by a British aircraft and claimed a part in the sinking of the first German capital ship, the cruiser Königsberg. The kit contains four sprues with dark grey plastic parts, injected clear parts, resin parts including detailed Perseus engine and photo-etched parts. Decals are for three aircraft stationed aboard Ark Royal during 1940 Norwegian Campaign. One aircraft sports artwork, something unique for FAA aircraft.

Note *** Plastic Model Kits do not come with Glue & Paints unless stated otherwise.
