Discover the English warplane — a British biplane fighter of the Royal Flying Corps used by the Triple Entente during World War 1, among other war conflicts.

Build your 1/16 scale model of the British biplane fighter that participated with the Entente Powers during World War 1: the Sopwith Camel. The manufacture of the model makes its design very faithful to the real aircraft. It is a wooden and metal model with a scale of 1/16, very compact and with numerous details — a faithful replica of the original, even using the same materials: wood for the structure and for the wings.

The Sopwith Camel was a prohibitive fighter for novice pilots; however, it was one of the most popular fighters of the so-called War of the Kaiser and the favourite mount of many allied pilots. The first order to the factory required the use of the 130 hp Le Rhône engine, but later the contract awarded to Sopwith requested that the Clerget 9B be installed as the motor. Between July 4, 1917 and November 11, 1918, the Sopwith Camel shot down a total of 1,294 enemy aircraft, although later studies by British writer Chaz Bowyer reveal that the total incursions of the Sopwith Camel caused around 2,800 victories — a figure much higher than that achieved by any other plane during the entire war. Only the German triplane Fokker Dr. I of the Red Baron overtook the Camel in maneuverability.
