Description
The Trumpeter 1/48 Supermarine Seafang F.Mk.32 from our 1/48 scale aircraft model kits range accurately recreates the real-life British carrier-borne fighter aircraft designed at the end of World War II. This plastic model kit requires paint and glue to complete.The Seafang was essentially a Spiteful redesigned for Royal Navy carrier use. Two prototype Seafang Mk.32s were ordered on 12 March 1945 followed by an order for 150 Seafang Mk.31s on 7 May 1945. To expedite entry into service the interim Mk.31 was ordered which was a navalised Spiteful, basically a Spiteful with an arrestor hook. This would allow the Mk.32 to be developed, it would be the definitive naval variant,with the addition of an arrester hook and with a contra-rotating propeller to eliminate engine torque effects and power folding outer wing panels.Manufacturer: Trumpeter Model: 02851 Supermarine Seafang F.Mk.32 Model Kit Scale: 1/48
