Description
The Spitfire Mx XIV was one of the most powerful models, with a significantly higher top speed at high altitude than earlier models thanks to the supercharged Griffon 61 and 65 engines. The model also sported a unique 5 blade propeller, unlike earlier models, giving it a better cruise speed.
The Mk XIV was introduced later in the Second World War, and were used to escort bombers to Germany and were also used for armed reconnaissance, searching for targets behind enemy lines. Their superior speed meant that they were able to out-perform Bf 109’s at any altitude, giving Allied forces an advantage over the Luftwaffe.
This lovely little Airfix model is a fantastic price for such a detailed model of a popular aircraft. Uniquely, it comes with red civilian colour schemes, making it great gift for model building pros or beginners alike (although with 118 parts, it’ll definitely need steady hands and patience to assemble).
