Supermarine Spitfire vs Messerschmitt Bf109

Without a doubt, it is in large part because of these stories and the men behind them that the Battle of Britain has been so fascinating to generations that came afterwards. Our Spitfire Mk.I Vs Bf109E dogfight set depicts one such story, and it was difficult indeed to choose two pilots in two aircraft that fought in an encounter during the summer of 1940.

On September 5th 1940, Pilot Officer Gerald “Stapme” Stapleton of No. 603 Squadron RAF shot down a Bf109E-4 flow by Oberleutnant Franz von Werra, Gruppe Adjutant of Staab II/JG3. Records of the event indicate that P/O Stapleton – most probably flying Spitfire N.3196 “XT-L” – shot down Von Werra flying Bf109E “Black Chevron” over Marden, Kent on the morning of the 5th. 

He later wrote of the encounter: https://beacon-models.com/product/spitfire-mk-1-vs-bf109e/

For the "versus" set you get
1x Spit MK.I   P/O Stapleton decals, 

1x bf-109 E-4  - Von Werra decals.

1/144 de Havilland Sea Venom FAW.22/53/TT.53 'Far East & Australia' (2in1) - Mark I

 1/144 de Havilland Sea Venom FAW.22/53/TT.53 'Far East & Australia' (2in1) - Mark I 

The de Havilland Sea Venom was a British jet all-weather fighter developed for the Royal Navy from the RAF's Venom NF.2 night fighter. First flown in April 1951, the Sea Venoms were produced as the FAW.20 (50 a/c), improved FAW.21 (167 a/c) and uprated FAW.22 (39 new built and other Mk.21s converted). In total, 256 aircraft were taken on FAA's charge, while 39 Sea Venoms, designated FAW.53, were delivered to the Royal Australian Navy in 1956.

It was a two-seat monoplane aircraft, of all-metal construction, powered by a DH Ghost turbojet. It featured twin-boom tail configuration, with two wing-root intakes and folding wings with wing tip fuel tanks, clear-view canopy and was fitted with ejection seats (Mk.21/22s). Its armament consisted of four fixed Hispano cannons, while a provision was made for two 500lb or 1,000lb bombs, or drop tanks, or eight 3" RPs below the wings. The FAW.22s could also carry the Firestreak guided missiles. A handful of Mk.21 and Mk.22 aircraft were modified for ECM purposes as ECM.21 and 22s, lacking the on-board armament, while three RAN Sea Venoms were later converted to TT.53s mounting the Del Mar target tug system.

The Sea Venoms replaced the Sea Hornets piston-engine fighters and were in the FAA front-line service with seven squadrons from March 1954 until the end of 1960. The Sea Venoms also took part in Suez campaign in the autumn of 1956, performing well during army support operations. The last Sea Venom aircraft were withdrawn from the FAA and RAN service in 1970 and 1973, respectively.

Colour schemes included in the kit:

1) de Havilland DH.112 Sea Venom FAW Mk.22, WW207/467-V, No.893 NAS, HMS Victorious, summer 1959

2) de Havilland DH.112 Sea Venom FAW Mk.22, XG721/592-HF, No.750 NAS, RNAS Hal Far, Malta, 1964/65

3) de Havilland DH.112 Sea Venom FAW Mk.53, WZ904/868-M, 'Top Cat', No.805 NAS, HMAS Melbourne, during a visit to Yokohama, Japan, June 1960

Enjoy the Mustang running in the skies of Australia with a set of two!

[About the actual machine]

The P-51 Mustang is the highest peak of the reciprocating fighter that was evaluated as one of the best fighters in World War II and was adopted not only by the US Army Air Corps but also around the world and remained active for a long time after the war.

Initially, development proceeded at the request of the United Kingdom, and the prototype first flew in October 1940.

From the beginning, it showed an extraordinary performance, but with the advent of the P-51D type, which can be said to be the definitive edition that replaced the Allison engine with the Marlin engine, its evaluation was immovable.

Aerodynamically sophisticated aircraft design, a masterpiece fighter with a good balance of various performances required for a fighter, such as excellent high-speed performance, long cruising range, stable high altitude performance, sufficient mobility and fighting ability. It became.

[About the model]

P-51D Mustang, which is said to be the highest peak of Recipo fighter, has been operated in many countries as well as the original US Army, so it is a big attraction that you can enjoy markings with different atmospheres in each country.

This kit is a kit that focuses on the appearance of the Royal Australian Air Force.

The P-51D was called the Mustang Mk.IV in the Commonwealth countries such as the United Kingdom, but what you should pay attention to is the kangaroo nationality mark.

-Initially, it used the same mark as the Royal Air Force, but later changed to its own kangaroo mark.
Both are prepared with decals so that you can enjoy 4 types of markings.

The kit is a set of parts for two machines.

Since it is 1/144 scale that you can easily assemble and enjoy the collection, you can also enjoy making comparisons and collections with the P-51D Mustang that has been lined up in the series so far.

Introducing the Royal Air Force Thunderbolt with attractive paint variations !!
The P-47D Thunderbolt, which appeared in the latter half of World War II and became the main fighter of the US Army along with the P-51 Mustang.

The P-47D, which has the image of a powerful and luxurious fighter-bomber in the United States, equipped with a 2,000 horsepower class high-power engine on a large and sturdy aircraft, is highly evaluated by the Royal Air Force.

The Royal Air Force also adopted the original production type `leather bag` as Thunderbolt Mk.I and the late production type` bubble top` as Thunderbolt Mk.II.

Thunderbolt, which was selected by the Royal Air Force with an eye on its high-performance and tough airframe characteristics, was active on the Indian-Burma front at the end of World War II.
-Modeled with a 1/144 scale kit that allows you to check the appearance of Thunderbolt, which was heavily used as a valuable force in the Royal Air Force, in the size of a palm.

The kit is a set of two `bubble top` type Thunderbolt Mk.II equipped with a water drop type (bubble) windshield.

Marking selects two types of aircraft that fought on the Burma front and two types of aircraft that trained in North Africa in anticipation of battle in the tropics.

It is also attractive that these four types of markings are all painted in different styles.

The standard gray camouflage of the British Air Force fighter, the brown camouflage that conveys the harshness of the Burma campaign, the unpainted silver of the US military aircraft, and the amazing special painting and selection of the training unit commander aircraft are fun markings.

The Royal Air Force Thunderbolt, which is said to have fully demonstrated its performance even in the harsh climate and operating environment that cannot be compared with the European front, is a set of two aircraft that also shows its rugged charm.

Marking can be selected from 4 types
Royal Air Force 73rd Conversion Training Squadron Squadron Commander Frank Reginald Carrie Dedicated Aircraft 1945 Egypt
Royal Air Force 73rd Conversion Training Squadron 1945 Egypt
Royal Air Force 134th Squadron 1945 India

[About the actual machine]
--The P-47D Thunderbolt is a large fighter developed, deployed and operated by the United States Army during World War II.
--The engine is equipped with the R-2800 air-cooled radial 18-cylinder engine that produces 2000 horsepower, which was the strongest at that time.
――Equipped with an exhaust turbine, it boasts excellent high altitude performance and a maximum speed of 690km / h.
――First flight in May 1941, and appeared on the European front from 1943.
--Initially, he was assigned to escort a strategic bomber unit heading for bombing from Britain to Germany, but when the new P-51 Mustang was deployed, it shifted its role to a ground attack that made use of a sturdy aircraft, and the war ended. Was active.
-Also adopted by the Royal Air Force because of its high performance. Among the most representative types of D type, the early production type `leather bag` was operated as Thunderbolt Mk.I.
――The late production type `Bubble Top` was also operated as Thunderbolt Mk.II.
--The Royal Air Force Thunderbolt advanced mainly to the Indian-Burma battlefield in the latter half of World War II.
――We fought a ground attack on the Japanese army deployed in the same area and an air battle with Japanese army fighters such as falcons and dragons.

[About the model]
-The model is a plastic model assembly kit that reproduces the fighter Thunderbolt Mk.I operated by the Royal Air Force in World War II on a 1/144 scale.
――Among the various types, we modeled a type of aircraft called the `leather bag` with the canopy integrated with the rear fuselage.
――The shape of the body with a sharp back, which is a feature of the early production type of D type, which is the origin of the name `leather bag`, is also realistically reproduced.
-Marking is prepared for 4 types of aircraft belonging to the Royal Air Force. We can manufacture both the dark green / ocean gray camouflage aircraft, which was the standard paint for British fighters in the latter half of World War II, and the dark green / dark earth camouflage aircraft, which was the standard paint for the Asian battlefield.
--In the Asian battlefield, a blue / light blue nationality mark is also available to prevent misidentification as the Hinomaru.
――It is a set of two aircraft that you can enjoy not only the chic charm that is different from the original US Army Thunderbolt, but also the unique charm that is a bit different from the standard British fighter.
