Overview
The Armstrong Whitworth Whitley, a twin-engine medium bomber, played a crucial role for the Royal Air Force (RAF) during the early years of World War II. Despite its limitations, it was a key part of the RAF's bomber force, participating in the first bombing raids over German and Italian territories.
This 1/72 scale model kit by Airfix allows you to recreate the iconic Whitley Mk.V in detail. Intermediate modellers can enjoy this challenging build and choose from two historically accurate paint schemes, depicting the Whitley's service in No. 10 and No. 102 Squadrons.
