About this model
This kit covers the F.XVII variant, which introduced the cut-down rear fuselage and teardrop canopy that set it apart from earlier Seafires. It includes folding wings, moulded to reflect the naval fighter's need for compact carrier stowage, and a reinforced airframe detailed to show its weapons-carrying capability.
The box contains the plastic kit, an instruction sheet, a paint guide and a decal sheet, giving everything needed to complete the model with an authentic WW2-era paint scheme. The kit is rated skill level 3, suited to modellers with some prior building experience.
