Eduard 672153 enables the recreation of exposed gun bays in both wings of the legendary Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IXe. Due to its historical context, this model represents a fighter extensively used by the RAF and Allied air forces during the final stages of World War II (1944–1945). The Spitfire Mk.IXe was used, among others, in operations over Normandy, battles over Western Europe, and in Allied air campaigns.

The set consists of highly detailed resin elements faithfully replicating the weapon bay structures and service recesses. The photo-etched sheets enable realistic representation of details difficult to achieve in plastic, such as supports, handles, and tiny structural components. This is an indispensable addition for modelers seeking exceptional realism and precision in their projects.

Assembly difficulty level (1-5): 4. The set is recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers due to the need for precise cutting, fitting, and painting of small photo-etched and resin parts. It's an ideal choice for military aviation enthusiasts, detail lovers, and those creating dioramas or replicas faithful to authentic historical photographs.

We recommend this set to anyone wishing to make their Spitfire Mk.IXe model collection stand out, and to truly capture the character and technical excellence of this WWII legend.
