As the US Navy fought back in the aftermath of the Pearl Harbor attack, the diminutive F4F-4 Wildcat was forced into combat against the Mitsubishi Zero, one of the worlds most successful naval fighters. With US pilots quickly learning not to dogfight with their agile opponent, the rugged Wildcat effectively held the line in the Pacific until the war winning F6F Hellcat could be introduced.

The clash of eagles which took place in the skies above Europe during the final months of WWII saw the worlds first operational jet fighter pitched against arguably the finest piston engined fighter of the war.
Even though it represented the future of aviation, the Messerschmitt Me262 stood little chance against large numbers of USAAF Mustangs, which hunted the jets mercilessly in the air and on the ground.
This is a double aircraft set with paints, brushes and glue making it a great gift for all ages. Scale of 1:72
