Bristol Blenheim Mk.If 1:72
The Bristol Blenheim was originally conceived as a
privately funded high-speed civilian aircraft, intended to wrestle the
record for the fastest civilian aircraft in Europe away from the
Germans. It achieved this with ease and immediately attracted the
attention of the RAF – at the outbreak of WWII, the Blenheim was
available in more numbers than any other RAF aircraft.
Before
the outbreak of WWII, the RAF were in need of a long range, heavy
fighter and to fulfil this role, some 200 Blenheim Mk.I medium bombers
were converted to ‘F – Fighter’ standard. The main differences included
the addition of a ventral gun pack of four .303 in machine guns
attached under the belly of the aircraft and airborne interceptor radar
equipment for night fighter variants. Most aircraft were quickly
relegated to night fighter duties, following the heavy losses suffered
by aircraft used in daytime fighter operations.
