About the Model
• This is a 1/48 scale plastic model assembly kit. Fuselage length: 240mm, wingspan: 330mm.
• The unique form of the P-38 is captured in style, with this kit allowing assembly of P-38F and P-38G
variants. This kit creates a parked aircraft.
• Features accurate depictions of early P-38 features such as slimline engine cowlings, intercoolers in leading
edges, plus the curved canopy front.
• Weights are included in the kit to ensure correct balance of the model when displayed.
• The canopy can be assembled open or closed. When closed, it is a 1-part slide-moulded piece with dedicated
F and G variant parts. The hatch is shown open sideways on the P-38F, and vertically on the P-38G.
• A detailed cockpit features the wheel-type controls, radio, throttle box and more.
• Comes with parts to recreate two each of 150-and 300-gallon drop tanks.
• Includes two marking options, including the “White 147” P-38G which took part in the interception of
Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto in April 1943.
• Mirror stickers are included to recreate cockpit mirror and engine cowling interior surface sections.
• Comes with canopy masking stickers and a full-colour painting guide.
