History:
The Hawker Hurricane Mk I was the backbone of Britain’s air defence during the Battle of Britain in 1940. This limited edition kit celebrates that legacy with weathered decals, detailed interiors, and two iconic squadron options. As the RAF’s workhorse, the Hurricane accounted for more enemy aircraft downed in the battle than any other type,this build pays tribute to its crucial role and the bravery of its pilots.
