A model of the British Hawker Typhoon Mk.IB fighter bomber in the early form with side doors to the cockpit, 1:32 scale.
Responsibility details are not available.
The Hawker Typhoon was a British single-seat aircraft of the Second World War which did not make its name as a high-altitude fighter but became one of the most effective machines for attacks on ground targets. It was powered by the mighty Napier Sabre, a twenty-four-cylinder H-24 engine, thanks to which the Typhoon had a high speed down low. The Mk.IB version carried four 20 mm cannons in the wing and could take bombs or unguided rockets under the wing.
The designation Car Door points to the first batch, which was entered through side doors like those of a car and whose canopy was still framed, that is with markedly worse visibility than the later bubble one. It was precisely these machines that ran into the difficulties in service which got the Typhoon talked about; their recognition features also included the stripes on the undersurface of the wings, which were meant to prevent it from being mistaken for an enemy aircraft.
Go through the instructions before building and try the parts dry first. Wash and degrease the surface before painting, because otherwise the paint holds badly. It pays to prepare and mask the side doors and the framed canopy separately; the framing is conspicuous on this aircraft and decides the overall impression. The manufacturer's instructions give the recommended glue and the order of assembly.
For modelers of the Royal Air Force who want a large-scale model with a distinctive character. Paints, glue and other building material are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
