About product

Handley Page Victor B.2 (1:72, Airfix)

A large injection-molded plastic kit of the British Handley Page Victor B.2 strategic bomber in 1:72 scale from Airfix. The model captures the characteristic crescent wing and the massive airframe of one of the three British V-bombers. In this scale it is a large and complex kit. Check the actual package contents and the decal options against the manufacturer's part number for this item.

The real subject

The Victor was one of the three British jet strategic bombers (the V-bombers, together with the Vulcan and the Valiant) that carried the British nuclear deterrent during the Cold War. Its hallmarks were the crescent leading edge of the wing and the high-set tail surfaces. The B.2 version had more powerful engines and a modified wing for flight at high altitude. Later, many of the aircraft were converted into aerial tankers.

Building and painting tips

Given the size of the model, build it in subassemblies and take care that the joints between the large parts are firm and true. Paint the cockpit and the landing gear bays before closing them up. Aircraft on nuclear alert wore a light anti-flash finish, while later schemes were camouflaged; after the gloss coat and the decals, pick out the panel lines with a wash.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of British Cold War and bomber aircraft
  • Experienced modelers who will appreciate a large and complex model in 1:72 scale
  • Anyone interested in the British V-bombers and the nuclear deterrent

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
