Airfix Fairey Gannet AS.1/AS.4 1:48 Aircraft Kit

An aircraft that must surely be considered one of the most distinctive types to have ever seen Fleet Air Arm service, the Fairey Gannet was as capable as it was unique and was significant as the only post-war military contract to be won by the famous Fairey Aviation Company. Arguably the most unconventional Fairey designed aircraft to enter full production, the Gannet was developed in response to a 1945 Royal Navy requirement for an advanced carrier-based, turboprop-powered anti-submarine hunter-killer, one which was rugged enough to withstand the rigors of operation at sea. 

For use under adult supervision, model kits are designed for children aged 10 years and upwards. Plastic Model kit that requires assembly and painting. This is not a toy.
