About product

Reconnaissance Spitfires in a single conversion set

The package offers F8, F52 and F24 cameras, two of each, two control boxes and two selector boxes, a Vokes filter, two wing covers, a rear fuel tank, two different cockpit canopies, a photo-etched frame and a small decal sheet with camera labels. From one set it is therefore possible to build several different reconnaissance forms of the Supermarine Spitfire.

Aircraft that carried lenses instead of cannons

Unarmed reconnaissance Spitfires flew high and far and relied on speed alone. The PR.IV version carried fuel in the leading edges of the wings and reached deep over the continent, while the machines of the G series kept their armament for low flights over the coast. The later FR.IX with an obliquely mounted camera provided tactical reconnaissance over the battlefield. The photographs from these aircraft stood at the origin of most planned operations.

Building recommendation

Do not glue the clear parts with cyanoacrylate glue, its fumes will fog the surface; reach for canopy glue or for a clear varnish. The lenses stand out when you go over them with a drop of glossy transparent compound after painting. Darken the inside of the bays before you close the fuselage up; later you will not get inside any more.

Intended for

  • modelers interested in reconnaissance aviation
  • builders who want more variants out of one set
  • advanced modelers with experience of conversions
  • collectors of British fighters in 1:32 scale

Neither decals with aircraft markings nor a plastic kit are in the package.

FAQ

The set is aimed at the early reconnaissance variant of the G series, at the long-range PR.IV version and at the tactical FR.IX.

Only a small sheet with camera labels is enclosed. Markings for particular aircraft have to be obtained separately.

The parts are shaped for the Spitfire kits from the Revell brand in 1:32 scale, specifically for the Mk.IIb and Mk.IXc versions.

It is a bulky air intake cover with a sand filter, which Spitfires were given for service in dusty conditions.
