Airfix Quickbuild J6002 Eurofighter Typhoon

Airfix is a British model making company that have been producing injection-moulded plastic scale model kits since 1939. Airfix model kits are so popular in the UK that the brand has become synonymous with plastic model kits. Their range includes cars, naval vessels, aircraft and trains, and they are particularly well known for their range of military models, particularly WW2-era models.

The Eurofighter Typhoon is a modern supersonic, multirole fighter developed by a European consortium beginning in 1994 to modern day. The collaborative effort was a joint venture between the UK, Germany, France, Italy and Spain and the aircraft is now in operation with European and other countries around the world. The Typhoon is a highly agile aircraft can be equipped with multiple air-to-ground and air-to-air armaments.

This lovely little starter model kit of the Eurofighter Typhoon from Airfix is great for beginners, coming in 30 parts. Airfix’s Quickbuild collection are great for younger model builders as the pieces simply click together like Lego blocks, so no gluing is required and the pieces are all coloured so the finished model doesn’t need to be painted. A great, low-cost gift for kids or adults with an interest in aviation.
