Hawker Sea Fury FB.II

The fantastic reissue of Airfix'1/48th Scale Hawker Sea Fury FB.ll (A06105A) will feature the impressive detail levels associated with this slightly larger scale of model and will incorporate a number of interesting build options for the modeller to consider. Along with the usual flying and static model configurations available to modellers, the new Sea Fury kit will include the option to have the wings folded for ease of operation on board an aircraft carrier, a feature unique to naval aircraft. The rigors of operation from carrier decks dictated that many naval aircraft were almost over engineered, with components required to be much tougher than would usually be the case with land based aircraft. The use of extremely robust undercarriage legs, arrester hooks and catapult spools were all features of naval aircraft, all of which have been faithfully reproduced on this beautiful kit.
