Classic Airframes have just announced their new release schedule for Summer 2004. As one would expect, a considerable amount of highly attractive subjects are included.
Classic Airframes are a manufacturer of high-quality, multi-media kits, all of which are in 1/48th scale. While not for the absolute beginner, Classic are producing kits that the 'mainstream/high-volume' manufacturers are unlikely ever to tool.

Kit # 468 Romeo RO 37 (new tooling) markings for three aircraft

Kit # 469 Romeo RO 37bis - (new tooling) markings for three aircraft

Kit # 471 Boulton Paul Defiant Mk. I Day Fighter (new tooling) markings for three aircraft

481 Boulton Paul Defiant Mk. II Night Fighter (new tooling) marklings for two aircraft

482 Boulton Paul Defiant TT Mk. I / TTMk.III (new tooling) markings for four aircraft

Kit # 484 F-5A Asian Allies. Markings for three aircraft, Chinese AF, Republic of South Korea AF & Royal Thai AF.

Also posted on Classic Airframes' website, is news of some spectacular new releases. I have to admit some prejudice here, as for a long time I have been 'enchanted' by post-war British subjects such as the Meteor and the classics such as the Swift, Javelin and Canberra...

These new announced releases are:

Kit # 465 Hawker Sea Hawk - 1/48 scale. Includes photo-etched wing folds. Markings for four aircraft, three British F.A.A. Squadrons (including Suez Canal operations) and Royal Dutch Navy

Kit # 490 Hawker Sea Hawk Mk. 101 (export version) - 1/48 scale. Includes photo-etched wing folds. West German Navy and Indian Navy
