Airfix - Hawker Typhoon Mk.IB - 1:72
Product Code:
A02041B
By 1943, the RAF needed a dedicated ground attack
fighter and the Typhoon was suited to the role. The powerful engine
allowed the aircraft to carry a load of up to two 1,000lb (454kg) bombs.
From September 1943, Typhoons could also be armed with four, eight or,
in some cases, even 12 "60lb" RP-3 rockets.
