Due for imminent release by Special Hobby is a 1:72 kit of the classic "Meatbox" in its 2-seat night-fighter form, complete with markings for four aircraft.
A. W. Meteor NF MK.12
The final generation of the Meteor jet fighters was produced by Armstrong Whitworth. Unlike the earlier versions, these were two-seater, night and all-weather fighter machines equipped with a radar in the nose. In the early stages of the Cold War, they defended the UK against the threat of Soviet bombers carrying nuclear weapons. The Meteor Mk.12 version was fitted with a US-manufactured APS-21 radar known as the AI Mk.21 in RAF service.

The best 1/72 NF Meteor kits currently available (Matchbox kits were released in 1987)
Highly detailed small parts
Four RAF marking schemes


Kit #SH72360 will be available soon - Price: 19.90 Euros
