First flying in 1936, R.J. Mitchell’s masterpiece was the interceptor of choice for Fighter Command by 1940, and the envy of many of the world’s air arms. Powered by the equally famous Rolls Royce Merlin V12, the Spitfire was capable of speeds of over 360mph and had exceptional manoeuvrability. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e The Spitfire was an excellent dog-fighter, able to turn on the inside of an opponent to great effect during the struggles over southern England and the English Channel during the Battle of Britain. The Spitfire Mark I has come to be seen as a symbol of ‘The Few’, vital to the defence of the United Kingdom against the previously all-conquering Luftwaffe. Along with the Hurricane, it cemented its place in history during the Battle of Britain and continues to be a hugely desirable ‘warbird' at airshows.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKit Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ePlastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInstruction sheet\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePaint layout sheet\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDecals\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Airfix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubject: Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I (Slightly Bent Box Top)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: AIRA05126B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eFind your next project in \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/airfix\"\u003eAirfix at Fusion Scale Hobbies\u003c\/a\u003e or browse \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/airfix-aircraft-model-kits\"\u003eAirfix Aircraft Model Kits\u003c\/a\u003e.
