It served as the primary fighter of British aircraft ships in the 1920s and 1930s, as well as a floatplane operating from catapults on ships’ decks. Armed with two machine guns and bombs, it gained a reputation for excellent maneuverability and ease of handling – it was highly valued by British pilots.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    We recommend the Armory Models 48004 kit both to fans of British military aviation and interwar collectors.
