Academy 12462 1:72 Hawker Typhoon 1B

The Hawker Typhoon Mk.IB, an RAF ground-attack aircraft, was produced in 1943. The aircraft featured a robust engine and could carry two massive 1,000-pound bombs. An armament of 60-pound RP-3 Rockets could be taken in increments of four, eight, and sometimes twelve in some cases. This Academy kit with over 100 plastic parts faithfully recreates the British Typhoon Mk.IB aircraft in 1:72 scale.
