Product Description

--This is a guide to the completely new mold kit 1/72 Armstrong Whitworth AW-52 from Micromill.
--The AW-52 is a two-engine turbojet engine-propelled flying wing that uses British laminar airfoils, and Armstrong Whitworth equipped the Rolls-Royce Nene engine for evaluation and made its first flight in 1947. And, we built two aircraft, the second one equipped with the Rolls-Royce Derwent engine that first flew in 1948.
――The first prototype crashed in 1949, but the emergency escape by the Martin-Baker Mk.1 ejection seat saved the lives of the crew, and this was the first case of using an ejection seat by a British pilot.
――The second prototype continued to fly at the Royal Aircraft Establishment until 1954.

――This injection plastic kit comes with etched parts, two types of decals (Unit 1 and Unit 2 x 1 each), and a 3D water slide decal with a three-dimensional effect that includes the instrument panel and seat belts.
――When completed, the total length will be approximately 158 mm and the total width will be approximately 38 mm.
