• Additions: does not include photo-etched parts or resin accessories
• Category: plastic model kit

The Supermarine Attacker was the first British jet fighter designed right after World War II for service with the Royal Navy. The aircraft utilized straight wings derived from the legendary Spitfire, combined with a modern fuselage adapted for jet propulsion. Its prototype's maiden flight took place in 1946, while production examples entered service during 1951-1954, marking a period of intense jet aviation development known as the Cold War. The Attacker was mainly used for training and early carrier operations of the Royal Navy before being replaced by more advanced designs.

The AZ Model AZ7327 faithfully replicates the structural details of the prototype, such as the characteristic wing configuration and the unusual tailwheel undercarriage. Assembly will be an interesting challenge for intermediate and advanced aircraft modelers who appreciate British engineering and rare projects from the technological breakthrough era.

Recommendation: We especially recommend this set to British aviation enthusiasts, prototype collectors, and all modelers who want to add an original and rarely seen aircraft to their collection. The model features a moderate level of building difficulty (level 3 on a 1-5 scale), requiring basic plastic modeling skills, precise assembly, and painting.

The kit does not include glue, paints, or tools, allowing you to choose your preferred modeling accessories. An excellent choice to expand your collection of Cold War jet models!
