TAMIYA 1/72 SUPERMARINE SPITFIRE MK.I

Tamiya 1/72 Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I Battle of Britain WWII Fighter Aircraft Plastic Model Kit

The Tamiya 1/72 Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I recreates the Spitfire variant that played such a crucial role in the defining Battle of Britain in the summer of 1940, capturing the type's elegant nose and elliptical wing in faithful 1/72 scale.

Please note this is an unassembled plastic model kit requiring assembly; paints, cement and hobby tools are not included and are required to complete the model.

The Spitfire Mk.I was the RAF's first mass-produced Spitfire variant and formed the backbone of Fighter Command during the summer of 1940, when Britain's air defences faced their most severe test of the war. Its combination of the elliptical wing and Rolls-Royce Merlin engine gave RAF pilots a fighter capable of matching the best the Luftwaffe could send against it, and the type's performance during the Battle of Britain helped cement its legendary status.
