CMK have a very interesting line-up of 1:72 sets this month, with the Tamiya Zero benefitting from multiple upgrades, but star of the show for British modellers must surely be the full resin kit of the Gloster F.5/34 - one of the also-rans to the Spitfire and Hurricane, a thereby one of the classic "what-if"s of British aviation:
PLT258 Gloster F.5/34 British Fighter Prototype
Full-resin model of 1930īs British fighter prototype. Although Gloster F.5/34 offered quite good performance, production of Hurricanes and Spitfires started up faster. Two prototypes were test-flown until the mid of the war. The model consists of detailed cast resin parts, vacuum formed canopy, decal sheet and white-metal undercarriage legs.
