Hasegawa 1/48 Spitfire MK Ixc RAF Fighter Model Kit

The Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IXc is the most important mid-war variant of R.J. Mitchell's immortal fighter, hastily developed to counter the Focke-Wulf Fw 190A that outclassed the earlier Mk.V. The two-stage supercharged Merlin 61 engine transformed the Spitfire's high-altitude performance, restoring RAF Fighter Command's edge over the Channel. The "c" wing housed two 20mm Hispano cannon and four .303 Browning machine guns. This 1/48 scale Hasegawa kit captures the Spitfire's legendary elliptical wing and graceful lines.
