Description
King and country

An uprated Merlin engine was dropped in an Mk.I Spitfire in 1939.
This 1,175 horsepower beast allowed the Spitfire to climb and
fly faster while carrying heavier loads. Merlin-engined Mk.IIs
went into full-rate production at a shadow factory near
Birmingham in 1939. The advantage these new engines gave, though
small, was exactly the kind of edge the RAF needed in the bloody
days of the Battle of Britain. Kit features detailed cockpit and
landing gear plus full decals.
