Blackburn Firebrand TF Mk.IV (Plastic model) - HobbySearch Military Model Store

This item is limited to 3 per household.

-The Royal Navy used to have multiple seat fighter planes, but it was clear that double seat fighter planes were heavier than single seat fighter planes and therefore would not compete with single seat fighter planes.
-Therefore, in 1939, a single-seat fighter was ordered and developed by Blackburn.
-However, the development speed was slow, and the Navy side was not aggressive because there was no aircraft carrier in the German Navy, and the prototype made its first flight in 1942 due to the circumstances of aircraft development prioritizing the Air Force.
-At that time, Seafire and others were already in operation, so Blackburn continued to develop it as a fighter capable of lightning and completed a production type that can be used in actual combat with the MK.IV type.

-Resin parts (cockpit parts, main hangar, wheels, etc.), etched parts and 2 types of Royal Navy decals are included.
-When completed, the total length is 165mm and the total width is 217mm.
