Roden 612 Airco (de Havilland) DH2 1/32 – Plastic Model Kit

Roden 612 Airco (de Havilland) DH2 in 1/32 scale is a unique plastic model kit, perfectly reproducing one of the most recognizable aircraft of World War I. This model is a faithful miniature of the famous British Airco DH2 fighter, which played a crucial role in the air battles of 1915-1917.

The Airco DH2, designed by Geoffrey de Havilland, was the first British aircraft with a pusher engine; its main advantage was the characteristic design with a lattice fuselage and the engine mounted behind the pilot. Over 400 units were produced, serving mainly in the Royal Flying Corps, fighting on the Western Front during World War I. It was Britain’s answer to the dominance of the German Fokker Eindecker, known as the "Fokker Scourge."
