Airfix A01071B Supermarine Spitfire Mk1a – 1:72 Scale Model Kit

DescriptionThe Supermarine Spitfire is perhaps one of the most recognisable vintage aircraft models. Designed in 1928 as a short-range interceptor aircraft, the unique, slim design gave it a superior top speed to other fighter craft, including the Hawker Hurricane and German Bf 109. The aircraft became synonymous with British war spirit due to its popularity with the public during the Second World War – many people would turn up to airfields to see Spitfires return from combat.This lovely little kit from Airfix is great for children as there are a relatively low number of pieces, meaning it’s simpler to construct. The kit doesn’t come with paint or glue (you’d need to buy those separately, but doing so means you’ll have them for other models too), but it does come with sticker decals.Ages: 8 Model Length: 10cmDifficulty: BeginnerScale: 1:72Pieces: 36
