MON856841   Monogram   1/48 Hawker Typhoon MK1B

TECH NOTES
    This is a 1/48 Hawker MK 1B Typhoon Plastic Aircraft Kit from Monogram-
   Classics.  This Battle of Normandy Fighter is for intermediate to advanced
                            modelers, ages 10 and up.

     The Hawker Typhoon was primarily designed as an interceptor aircraft, but
it did not live up to expectations as the planned successor to the Hurricane
fighter.  Its difficulties, caused by structural failures of the tailplane,
almost caused it to be pulled from service.  However, the Typhoon was modified
and adapted to a new role as a low-level interceptor.

FEATURES: Authentic and highly detailed scale model with colorful matte-finish
            waterslide decals.
          Landing gear can be assembled in landing or retracted position.
          Detailed wheel wells, cockpit interior with pilot, rotating wheels,
            and 4-blade propeller.
          Canopy assembles open or closed.
          Kit may be painted to match plane seen on box.
          Detailed pictorial instructions.
