Airfix 1/24th A18002V JU-87B Stuka Dive Bomber WW2 Kit
Blitzkreig across Poland and France in 1939-40 was devastatingly efficient. A key factor in this 'lightning war' was the Ju 87 Stuka. A symbol of terror and destruction this ugly dive-bomber gained an almost legendary reputation in its relatively short operational career.

In the summer of 1944, after the D-Day landings, British troops pressing into Normandy faced fierce resistance—and a dry pint glass. Supplies were tight, and morale was vital. So, in one of the war’s most unexpected missions, Spitfire pilots took to the skies not just with ammunition—but with beer. Ingenious airmen modified drop tanks and strapped barrels beneath their wings, delivering much-needed refreshment to parched troops across the Channel. Some called it “Operation Cheers.” These weren’t official missions. They were flights of morale. Spitfires—symbols of British grit—became airborne drays for a brief, glorious period. This Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IXc kit in 1:24 scale includes parts required to truly replicate the beer carrying Spitfires ‘Flying Drays’. Scale: 1:24 Parts: 452
Included in this special release are high detail resin parts required to truly replicate the beer carrying Spitfires ‘Flying Drays’. - 2 x Beer barrels, including lids barrel ends. - 2 x Nose cones (Information available indicates that these were probably made from the rear end of a P-51 drop tank) - 2 x Bomb racks - 1 x Slipper tank. Also included in this release is an external canopy masking set for the clear parts and a special edition pint glass, dedicated to ML208, one of the aircraft known to have participated in these missions.
