Product Code: A09186A
(Pre-Order Due September 2026)
As the world erupted into conflict in September
1939, the Royal Air Force had more Bristol Blenheims in service than any
other aircraft type and it saw extensive service during the savage air
battles. Used mainly in the light bomber role, around 200 Blenheims were
also modified for use as long range fighter/night-fighters, with these
aircraft being equipped with ventral packs mounted on their undersides,
housing four forward-firing 0.303 machine guns. Production of these
bespoke components, along with their mounting frames, was sub-contracted
to the workshops of Southern Railway at their Ashford site in Kent.
