Airfix Vickers Wellington Mk.IA/C 1:72 Plastic Model Aircraft Kit

This is the Airfix Vickers Wellington Mk.IA/C, a 1:72 scale plastic model aircraft kit of the RAF's twin-engine WW2 medium bomber.

About this model

The Wellington used Barnes Wallis's geodetic airframe construction, a lattice structure that gave the aircraft notable strength and allowed it to absorb significant battle damage while remaining airworthy. This kit reproduces that distinctive fuselage shape and the aircraft's twin-engine monoplane layout.

The box contains 141 plastic components along with an instruction sheet, paint guide and decal sheet, giving you the parts and references needed to complete the build and finish it in either of the two supplied schemes.
