Own the naval version of the most famous of all RAF aircraft
A modified version of the legendary Spitfire, the Seafire was developed especially for the Royal Navy as a carrier-based fighter. Characterized by a universal wing which could accommodate all foreseeable types of armament, the Seafire was fitted with rockets for assisted take-offs. This model is patterned after an actual Seafire that took part in the North African campaign of 1942. Bearing official Royal Navy markings, it is authentic down to the smallest detail.
* First Spitfire variant built for carrier operations
* Torch Operation, North Africa 1942
* R.N., F.A.A. CV Furious
