Detailed 1/48 Scale Replica of the Spitfire Mk.I

The Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I remains a hallmark of WWII aviation thanks to its sleek profile and agility. Tamiya's 1/48 scale kit recreates those distinctive lines and wing shape, providing modellers with crisp moulding and defined surface detail for a high quality build. Its role during the Battle of Britain helps explain why it remains popular among aviation collectors.

Conceived by Reginald J. Mitchell and entering flight in 1936, the Spitfire won renown for its performance. The model faithfully shows the aircraft's asymmetrical radiator and oil cooler positions and the retractable undercarriage that aided streamlining. The kit also represents the original armament layout of eight 7.7mm machine guns for accurate display work.
