 | DE HAVILLAND MOSQUITO FBVI Ref: AIR07100
Versatility was the hallmark of the famous de Havilland Mosquito. Whether low-down attacking enemy shipping in Norwegian Fjords, photographing targets deep in Europe or conducting pinpoint bombing on selected industrial targets, the de Havilland Mosquito had few equals. The high performance - nearly 400 mph - of the Mosquito can be attributed to its two 1,230 h.p. Rolls Royce Merlin engines and to is light wooden structure. There were two distinct versions of the aircraft, one specifically designed for the bombing role and the other a solid-nosed fighter-bomber which was also used successfully as a night fighter. The Mosquito was designed to Air Ministry Spec. B.1/40 and the first prototype was completed in the incredibly short time of eleven months and made its maiden flight on the 25th November, 1940. The Mk II version first entered RAF service in January 1942 and supplanted the Beaufighter as the standard home defence night fighter. The F.B. VI followed in mid 1943 and established itself as the premier twin-engined fighter-bomber of the war. Several notable raids were made by Mosquito intruder aircraft, including the attack on Amiens Gaol in February 1944 and on the Gestapo headquarters in Copenhagen in March 1945. As well as flying intruder operations over Europe the F.B. VI was fitted with rocket projectiles beneath the wings and operated effectively with RAF Coastal Command as an anti-shipping aircraft. In addition to underwing weapons, Mosquitos were armed with four 20 mm cannons and four .303 in machine guns in the nose, whilst in an internal fuselage bay two 500 lb bombs could be carried. Transfers included in this kit are for a F.B. VI NS850, an aircraft of 418 Royal Canadian Air Force Sqn, based at Middle Wallop in August 1944 and flown on intruder missions over Europe. This aircraft, flown by Sqn Ldr Robert Kipp, scored the unit's 100th aerial victory of a final total of 178 enemy aircraft. Alternative markings are provided for HR405, a Coastal Command F.B. VI of 143 sqn. Banff Strike Wing, Scotland. This aircraft flew anti-shipping strikes against targets across the North Sea between November 1944 and May 1945. A total of 2,500 Mosquito F.B. VIs were built and the type remained in RAF service in the immediate post-war years. Performance: maximum speed, 380 mph, height 31,000 ft. Range 1,200 miles. Wing span 54 ft 2 in, length 40 ft 6 in.
Popularly known as the Wooden Wonder due to its all-wood construction, the Mosquito made heacdlines in a major time of World War II. This famous kit of the FV VI Fighter also allows you to create the Coastal Command with an obtion of two decals. Precise in detail and including a full cockpit layout, this model forms a fitting tribute to this superb design.

 | HUGHES APACHE Ref: AIR07101
The Hughes AH-64 Apache is now entering service with the US Army and brings very advanced technology to the concept of airborne battlefield support. The helicopter can operate by day or by night, in all kinds of weather and, thanks to its nose-mounted infra-red detector, laser range/target designator and laser tracker module, can deliver high-precision attacks against point targets such as tanks. It also incorporates very advanced flying controls and a Pilot's Night Vision System (PNVS), whilst both the pilot and the co-pilot/gunner, seated in front of him, are equipped with an integrated Helmet and Display Sighting System (HADSS), giving almost instantaneous target acquisition at a mere move of the head. The AH-64's principal weapons are a 30 mm Hughes Chain Gun (1,200 rounds), sited below the gunner's position and up to 16 Hellfire anti-tank missiles disposed on four pylons, but 2.75 in (70 mm) Folding-Fin Aircraft Rockets (FFAR) can be carried in lieu of the missiles. The entire airframe is armoured against 12.7 mm fire and vital parts of the airframe against 23 mm rounds. The AH-64 was selected in 1976 for procurement in preference to the Bell AH-63 and the prototype (YAH-64) first flew in autumn 1975. Over 500 Apaches are planned for US Army Service, although the enormous expense of the programme may reduce this total. Overall length is 49 ft (14.9 m) and rotor diameter 48 ft (14.6 m); top speed is quoted as 192 mph (310 km/h).

 | ENGLISH ELECTRIC LIGHTNING F2A/F6 Ref: AIR09178
Following the first flight of the English Electric P1 in 1954 the production Lightning F1 was in squadron service with the RAF by the end of 1960; a rapid pace of development saw the F1a, F2 and F3 in full service by 1964. Much as the Mach 2+ Lightning was a quantum leap in capability for the RAF, with its superb rate of climb, high altitude performance and missile armament all being more than welcomed, it was known from the start the the type would have some limitations; the main one was its short range and endurance and the air refuelling capability introduced for the F1A and later variants did partially offset these problems. Use of the Red Top missile for the F3 had already seen one major change in the external appearance by way of an enlarged fin; some other external changes had also been tested on early Lightning's, not only as proposals for RAF aircraft but also to assist with selling the type to overseas customers, where long range and endurance were vital factors if sales were to be successful. It was proposed that F3 airframes be modified to carry a much larger ventral fuel tank, have enlarged wing surfaces in order to maintain performance and also be capable of carrying specially designed over-wing fuel tanks and pylons. Sixteen such conversions were made to F3A/Interim F6 standards and another nine converted to full F6 standards; in addition, 38 F6s were built, these being the last new production variant for the RAF, although the final version to enter service was the similar F2A, as referred to below. The interim Lightning F6s first entered operational service with No.5 Squadron at Binbrook in November 1965 and from April 1967 they, along with No.11 Squadron at Leuchars, re-equipped with full production standard F6s. From August 1966 No.74 Squadron at Leuchars became the first unit to re-equip with full production standard F6s; it deployed to RAF Tengah, Singapore, in June 1967 and disbanded in August 1971, its F6s going to Akrotiri in Cyprus to re-equip No.56 Squadron. The deletion of the nose guns in the Lightning F3 and F6 had been regretted for some time, as RAF pilots now lacked the ability to partake in close-in air combat training. From 1971 many F6s had the forward bay of the large ventral fuel tank replaced by a pair of 30mm cannons, although F3s were not retrofitted with nose guns. Consideration had already been given to upgrading the front line capabilities of Nos.19 and 92 Squadrons at Gutersloh in RAF Germany, which were still equipped with Lightning F2s. From 1968, these were gradually withdrawn to the UK for conversion similar to F6 standards. Engines were upgraded to Avon 211s and the enlarged fin, wings and ventral tank were fitted, together with some equipment updates; in-flight refuelling probes were often carried. Some items were not changed; nose cannons were retained, as were the Firestreak AAMs. The F2A did not use Red Top AAMs, and the fuselage cable ducts remained at their original lengths; nor were overwing fuel tanks carried, or the pair of 30mm cannons that were later fitted in the forward ventral tank of the F6. From mid 1972 the F2As received a unique toned-down camouflage of matt dark green over the upper surfaces. A total of 31 F2s were converted to F2A standards and these aircraft of Nos.19 and 92 Squadrons continued to provide the quick reaction defence of RAF Germany until 1977. No.23 Squadron at Leuchars used Lightning F6s from May 1968 until it disbanded at the end of 1975. In May 1974 No.111Squadron received three F6s for a few weeks before it disbanded as a Lightning unit in September, which month also saw No.56 Squadron disband. It was left to Nos. 5 and 11 Squadrons along with the Lightning Training Flight at Binbrook to carry on as the sole operators of the type for another ten years before their retirement in 1988. From the early 1980s several Lightning's (the remaining F3s, T5s and F6s) had their drab green/grey camouflage replaced by the air defence greys schemes. The Lightning F6 was powered by two Rolls Royce Avon 301 engines rated at 5,576kg (12,690lb) dry thrust and 7,421kg (16,360lb) with reheat. The F2A and F6 both had the same overall dimensions, with an overall length of 16.82m (55ft 3in), wing span 10.61m (34ft 10in) and height 4.75m (15ft 7in). A grand total of 338 Lightning's of all versions (including prototypes and pre-production aircraft) was built and flown, 54 of these being F53s and T55s exported to Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. The Lightning will always be remembered for its spectacular flying displays and as the fighter which gave the RAF its operational entry into the supersonic era.
