Overview of the Tamiya 61111 Lancaster Model

The Avro Lancaster played a pivotal role in RAF operations during World War II. The Mk.III Dambuster featured adaptations for bouncing bombs, whereas the Mk.I Grand Slam carried the massive 10-ton Grand Slam bomb aimed at deeply reinforced targets.

Tamiya's 1/48 kit recreates these historic variants with careful detail, giving modellers the choice to assemble the Dambuster or Grand Slam layout while capturing the aircraft's scale presence.
