Scale and Subject

This 1/72 scale diecast model replicates the Supermarine Spitfire MkIXC flown by Lt Robert Connor with the 309th Fighter Squadron, 31st Fighter Group in 1943. It is an officially licensed collectible aimed at adult enthusiasts of military aviation history.

Display and Detail Constraints

The model measures approximately 5.25 inches in length with a 6.25 inch wingspan, limiting the visibility of the finest cockpit instrumentation at this scale. Diecast metal and plastic construction provides a heavy, realistic feel, while the fixed landing gear and single included stand restrict posing options to a standard flight attitude.

Installation and Common Issues

Setup consists simply of placing the aircraft onto the supplied display stand, requiring no tools or assembly. The main risk during unpacking is bending the delicate antennas, panel lines or access panels, which are moulded as fine protrusions on the diecast surface.
