Eduard 32261 P-40N Gun Bay HASEGAWA 1/32 is a high-quality set dedicated to the 1/32 scale Hasegawa P-40N fighter model. This product enables you to create an extremely realistic imitation of the gun bay – a modeling section rarely found in basic kits – and allows for highly detailed reproduction of the internal mechanisms of the Curtiss P-40N Warhawk fighter.

Historical background and application: The model represents the P-40N – one of the most well-known American fighter aircraft of World War II. The P-40N flew from 1943 in both the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) and Allied air forces such as the Royal Air Force, RAAF, and Soviet Air Force units. The fighter saw combat in theaters such as the Pacific, North Africa, and China-Burma-India. Developed during WWII, the P-40N was noted for its ruggedness and durability. Add-ons like the detailed gun bay allow modelers to faithfully recreate interiors characteristic of authentic machines from this era.
