<p> The F-8 Crusader was one of the first true supersonic carrier-based fighter aircraft to be developed. In 1952, the US Navy was modernizing its carrier fighter force. From all the proposals, the new F-8 Crusader stood out and won the competition, it's maiden flight taking place on March 25th 1955. The design of the F-8 was unique in that the pitch of the entire wing could be adjusted in flight (up to +7°) to allow for a proper angle of approach at low speeds. </p> <p>This was necessary for carrier landings, The Crusader had a very impressive combat record with the Navy and Marine Corps in Vietnam, and was nicknamed "the Mig killer" because of its numerous victories over these jets. In fact, the F-8 shot down 14 Mig-17s and 4 Mig-21s during the Vietnam war. The F-8E variant was produced as a mutli-role attack fighter with an improved engine, new radar, and underwing pylons to carry up to two AGM-12 Bullpup missiles. </p>

<p>The Supermarine Walrus or Supermarine Seagull V was designed and produced by Supermarine from 1936 to 1944. Seven hundred forty airframes were built, and the aircraft served as the primary catapult-launched scouts for the Royal Navy in World War Two. Due to its versatility and good range, it also performed well in search and rescue missions, as well as in anti-submarine warfare. This kit includes 54 parts for assembling a set of Supermarine Walrus seaplanes in 1/350 scale. The completed models are 4cm long and have a wingspan of 3.2cm.</p><h3>Specifications</h3><ul> <li>Length: 39.92mm Width: 32.42mm </li> <li>Total Parts: 54pcs</li> <li>Total Sprues: 6pcs sprues</li> </ul><h3>Includes</h3><ul> <li>Transparent parts to build HMS Walrus seaplanes</li> <li>Six sprues with 54 pieces</li> <li>Waterslide decals</li> <li>Detailed instruction manual</li> </ul>

<h3>German WWII Horten XVIIIA super long-range strategic bomber</h3> <p>The Horten XVIIIA featured a flying wing design, which means it lacked a traditional fuselage with a separate wing. The entire aircraft was a wing, providing certain aerodynamic advantages.</p> <p>It was conceived as a long-range strategic bomber capable of carrying a significant payload over extended distances. This was in line with Germany's interest in developing advanced aircraft for strategic bombing.</p> <p>The design included jet engines for propulsion. Jet engines were relatively new technology during World War II, and incorporating them into the Horten XVIII A would have provided the aircraft with enhanced speed and performance.</p> <p>The flying wing design inherently had some stealthy characteristics, making it less susceptible to radar detection compared to conventional aircraft of the time.</p> <p>Over time, you can continue to expand your collection by adding new models, including limited-edition releases, special paint schemes, and models from ModelCollect</p>

<p>McDonnell-Douglas / Northrop F / A-18 Hornet is an on-board fighter and attack aircraft capable of operating in all weather conditions. The roots of the F / A-18 go back to 1974 and the F-17 prototype, which was of interest to the US Navy command this year. The contract for the serial construction of the aircraft was concluded in 1976. In order to accelerate the work, the Northrop concern entered into cooperation with the McDonnell-Douglas concern. As a result, on November 18, 1978, the test flight of the prototype took place, and a year later, successful landings on the aircraft carrier. Since 1982, the aircraft has been delivered to linear units with General Electric F404-GE-402 engines as the propulsion unit. The plane is produced in several versions. The first were the F-18A (fighter) and F-18B (training). Foreign orders from Spain, Canada and Australia appeared quickly. In 1987, a version of the F-18C was created, adapted to the use of AMRAAM missiles. A year later, the F / A-18D, a two-seat version of the F-18, entered service in all weather conditions, and could be used as an attack aircraft. On its basis, the reconnaissance version of the R / F-18D was created. The newest versions (the so-called Super Hornet) -F / A-18E and F / A-18F are very modified versions of the F / A-18D. They are characterized by an increased length of the fuselage, wingspan and their surface. They also have new General Electric F414 engines and a decidedly expanded and modernized avionics. They were presented for the first time in 1995. The EA-18G Growler electronic warfare plane was also created on the basis of the F-18. All versions of the F / A-18 met with favor of pilots, they are characterized by low failure rate, ease of use and very good flight parameters. Hornets took part in the operation against Libya in 1986 and in the Operation Desert Storm in 1991. Technical data (version F / A-18 C): Maximum speed: 1915 km / h, speed of climb: 254 m / s, practical ceiling 15 240 m, maximum range: 3340 km, operating radius: 280-740 km, armament: fixed- Single 20mm M61A-1 six-barrel cannon, underslung - up to 7700 kg of cargo.</p> <p>This is an injection-plastic jet aircraft model kit.</p>

<p>The Ju 87 "Stuka" dive bomber may be one of the most famous dive bombers during World War II. From the beginning of the blitzkrieg, it served as the air support force of the German Air Force. The Ju 87A-1 was the first model to be put into production, which began production in early 1937. They installed the Yumo Jumo 210D engine and replaced the HPA III propeller at a later stage.</p> <p>At the end of 1937, the new Stuka, equipped with the Yumo Jumo 210Da engine, began to enter the military service, known as the Ju 87A-2, which can be distinguished from the new rudder.</p>
