Title: Real World Banff Strike Wing Mozzie FB Mk.VI
Post by: Aeroplanedriver on July 11, 2020, 02:01:40 PM

This week's build...number 18 since late March.  Nothing too exciting, just a OOB build of Tamiya's lovely 1/48 Mozzie Mk.6.  My Banff Strike Wing Beaufighter needed a friend so I decided this needed building.

Great finish on panel lines and light weathering.  Packing lot of firepower.  :smiley:

With two GP bombs, eight rockets, four .303 machine guns, four 20mm cannons and a top speed north of 400 this thing really was the F/A-18 of its day. 

Thanks for the comments guys!
