About product

The Hawker Hurricane Mk.IIa in 1:32 scale from the manufacturer FLY

A kit of the British Hawker Hurricane fighter in the Mk.IIa version, in 1:32 scale. The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. On this type the 1:32 scale leaves room for the cockpit interior, the engine section and the landing gear bays.

The real subject

The Hawker Hurricane was a single-seat fighter of mixed construction: a tube frame fuselage with fabric covering at the rear and a metal wing on the later production batches. That construction was exactly what made it easy to repair under field conditions, and the aircraft took considerable damage in its stride. The Mk.II version brought the more powerful Rolls-Royce Merlin XX engine with a single-stage two-speed supercharger, which improved performance at greater heights. The Mk.IIa subvariant kept the 7.7 mm machine gun armament in the wing, while later subvariants went over to twelve machine guns, or to cannons. The Hurricane served with the Royal Air Force and with other operators across several theaters, and Czechoslovak pilots flew in its cockpits too.

Building and painting tips

Dry-fit the parts before you reach for the glue and true the mating surfaces up with a file as needed; with kits in this scale a slow-setting cement, which gives time to line the parts up, tends to pay off. Finish and weather the cockpit interior and the landing gear bays before you close up the fuselage, because afterward you will not reach them. Mask the cockpit glazing and spray the frames with the interior shade first, only then with the top camouflage. Lay a primer on the surface, then thin coats of the covering color, and a gloss varnish before the decals; after the decals come a wash into the engraved lines and a matte varnish to finish. On the fabric part of the fuselage do not overdo the pronounced panel lines, because the covering there was not divided up the way metal skin is.

Who the model is for

  • Modelers with experience of building aircraft in larger scales
  • Collectors of British fighters of the Second World War in 1:32
  • Those who want the particular Mk.IIa version in the collection beside the more widespread later subvariants
  • Builders who enjoy working up the interior and the engine section

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

FAQ

It is not. It is supplied as a kit, unassembled and unpainted. Glue and paints are not included in the package.

Check the number of parts and the range of decal options in the instructions enclosed with the kit.

The Mk.IIa kept the 7.7 mm machine gun armament in the wing. The later subvariants had more machine guns, or cannon armament, and they also differed in the racks under the wing.

Rather not. We recommend having a few built aircraft behind you; experience with dry-fitting parts and with cleaning up seams comes in handy.
