The Airfix Supermarine Seafire F.XVII Model Kit is a great choice for any model collection.
Brace yourself for a stealthily guarded FAA revelation! A masterpiece of the skies, the Supermarine Seafire XVII was the first of the Seafire variants to feature a cut-down rear fuselage and distinctive teardrop-style canopy. The aircraft could carry a heavier weapons load thanks to reinforced construction, with both fuel tanks and rockets under the wings.
This plane flew on the frontline until the early 1950s when it downgraded to training duties. The Navy’s answer to the ever-popular Spitfire, this masterpiece astounded the world with its unrivalled performance in the most demanding of conditions. It effortlessly operated from aircraft carriers, making it a formidable presence over land and sea.
