Airfix North American Mustang IV Starter Set 1:72

Description

The North American P51 Mustang is viewed as one of the iconic American fighters of the Second World War.  Designed to an RAF specification, the Mustang was transformed once the Rolls Royce Merlin engine was installed. Its long range and excellent firepower made it a superb escort fighter, able to protect the bombers all the way to Berlin and back.  After the war, the P51 saw service in Korea and was used by some air arms up until the early 1980s.

Airfix Starter Sets are ideal for beginners.  Each Small Starter Set includes glue, brush and four acrylic paints – all that is needed to complete a fabulous first kit!

Where possible, Airfix have been using Lidar to ‘map’ new subjects since 2015, this gives much improved accuracy to their measurements, textures and the general feel of the subject.  The Lidar data is then fed into a CAD program for Airfix to begin creating the model.  The video shows how it’s all done.
