<p>In 1936, the Department of Aviation, based on the good experience with the Miles Hawk Trainer aircraft, which the Air Force used to train reserve pilots, decided to order their variant intended directly for military pilot training. It summarized its requirements in the T.40/36P specification.</p>

<li>Miles Magister Mk.I, RAF, Great Britain, 1942</li>
<li>Miles Magister, Portuguese Air Force, 1952</li>
<li>Miles Magister, Mk.I, 451 Sq. Rayak, Syria, ADF Australian, 1942</li>
<li>Miles Magister, Waitomo Aero Club, New Zealand, 1953</li>
</ul>
<p>The requested type was the first monoplane in RAF history, and also broke the rule established in the early 1930s that new training aircraft should be of metal construction. The result of Miles' modifications to the Hawk Trainer was the Miles M.14 type, which differed mainly in a redesigned cabin, seats allowing the use of parachutes and a complete set of instruments in both compartments, enabling blind flight training. Instead of fairing the fixed chassis with wide "pants", a much tighter fairing was used, moreover, the lower part was often not mounted. The construction was wooden, covered with plywood.</p>

Trumpeter 02814 1/48 FW 200C-4 Condor

<p>The Focke Wulf Fw-200 Condor is a German, four-engine long-range maritime patrol aircraft with an all-metal, half-shell structure in a low wing structure from the Second World War. The flight of the prototype took place in July 1937, and the plane entered mass production for the army in 1940. Originally, the Fw-200 was used as a passenger plane on the Berlin-London-New York route, but with the outbreak of the World War it was quickly used by the Luftwaffe. The Fw-200 was powered by four BMW / Bramo 323R-2 engines with a power of 1200KM each. A big disadvantage was the poor performance, especially the maximum speed and the poor structure of the airframe, which led to failures and catastrophes. The Fw-200 was primarily used in the Atlantic to track down and destroy Allied convoys. The best period for this aircraft is 1942-1943. After 1943, it was moved to transport units. In total, 276 of this aircraft were built.</p>

Roden 404 1/48 Sopwith 1.5 Strutter Single-seat Bomber

<p>After the successful debut of the two-seat Sopwith 1½ Strutter fighter, RNAS ordered the Sopwith 9700 single-seat bomber among six new types for its own needs. At that time the Admiralty were planning great offensive air raids against Germany's industrial centers, but the lack of a suitable aeroplane delayed this idea.</p>
<p>The first single-seat 1½ Strutter was delivered to the RNAS in June 1916, but official acceptance took place in August. At the same time the RFC also ordered the 1½ Strutter from Sopwith, and many subcontractors also began to build this type: Morgan & Co, Hooper, Mann & Egerton, and Westland completed 372 single-seat 1½ Strutters in total.</p>

<p>The South Korean Air Force FA-50 Fighting Eagle is a light combat aircraft developed by Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) in collaboration with Lockheed Martin. Derived from the T-50 Golden Eagle advanced trainer, the FA-50 is designed to perform a wide range of missions, including air-to-air combat, air-to-ground strikes, and reconnaissance.</p>
<p>Equipped with advanced avionics and weapon systems, the FA-50 can carry a variety of munitions, including precision-guided bombs, air-to-surface missiles, and air-to-air missiles. Its multi-role capability and affordability make it an attractive option for smaller air forces seeking to modernize their fleets without the cost of heavier fighter jets like the F-16. With a top speed of Mach 1.5, the FA-50 provides excellent agility and combat readiness, while its advanced radar and avionics ensure situational awareness and engagement precision.</p>
<p>The FA-50's versatility and cost-effectiveness have made it a key asset for South Korea's air defense strategy and a popular choice for export to other nations looking for a reliable, modern light fighter.</p>
<p>The product reproduces the aircraft's form and various weapons (air-to-air AGM-65 / air-to-ground guided missile KGGB) with precise molding.</p>
<p>Includes decals and canopy masking stickers for five Republic of Korea Air Force aircraft.</p>

<h3>Plastic model - German fighter Messerschmitt Bf 109 F-2.</h3>
<p>Historical note: Instead of the MG FF / M cannon, the Bf.109 F-2 series fighters were equipped with a 15 mm Mauser MG 151/15 machine gun with 200 rounds of ammunition. The ammunition belt was located at the base of the left wing console, from where the cartridges entered the machine gun mounted in the fuselage. Serial production of the Bf.109 F-2 was carried out at the factories WNF, Messerschmitt AG, AGO, Erla, Arado.</p>
<p>Continuation of the "assembly without glue" series. This time the legendary German fighter Messerschmitt.</p>
<p>As with previous models in this series, glue-free assembly is achieved without sacrificing copyability!</p>
<p>This is a complete model with excellent detail, but does not require special skills and tools, plus, a very attractive price.</p>
<p>Modeling has become accessible to everyone!</p>

<p>Developed by the Bristol Aeroplane Company, the Bristol Beaufort torpedo bomber began to enter service with the RAF Coastal Command in late 1939. The aircraft was actively used to perform various tasks, and its peak monthly production was up to 30 machines per month. Later the Bristol Beaufort was improved, the composition of armament and equipment changed.</p>
<p>The Mk.IA modification had a new machine gun turret, similar to the one installed on the Bristol Blenheim bomber. Also, ASV radars began to be installed on torpedo bombers, which were used to search for surface targets.</p>
<p>This aircraft was on combat at Mediterranean Sea and North Africa. Here their targets were convoys of transport ships and warships of the Axis countries. Operation in high temperature conditions also led to the use of modified carburetor air intakes on Bristol Beaufort engines.</p>

<p>The Henschel Hs 126 was a German two-seat reconnaissance and observation aircraft of World War II that was derived from the Henschel Hs 122. The pilot was seated in a protected cockpit under the parasol wing and the gunner in an open rear cockpit. The prototype aircraft frame was that of a Hs 122A fitted with a Junkers engine. The Hs 126 was well received for its good short takeoff and low-speed characteristics which were needed at the time.</p>
<h3>Features</h3>
