Special Hobby SH72162 1/72 British Short Sunderland Mk.V

Discontinued

Model of the iconic British flying boat.
The kit consists of as many as eleven styrene sprues, one clear, one small resin cast item and a fret of photo etches. Full colour instruction booklet and huge decal sheet caters for four marking schemes.
- exquisitely detailed model, accurate dimensions and overall shape
- finely engraved panel lines
- almost A4-sized decal sheet which includes also complete stencilling for both the exterior and interior, flawlessly printed by Cartograf
- marking schemes for three RAF schemes and one machine operated by the French Aeronavale.
(Two of the British machines flew in the Far East in the support of anti-communist insurgent missions in Malaya and Korea, one machine took part in the British airlift during the Berlin blockade and the French machine was based at Lanveoc-Poulmic Naval Base in 1951)

This is a plastic model kit, which comes unassembled and unpainted. So glue, model paints and other basic modelling tools are additionally required.
