Revel in the historical prowess of Special Hobby's 1/32 Westland Whirlwind FB Mk.I 'Fighter-Bomber' Hi-Tech SH32088, capturing the robust spirit of Britain's valiant aerial defender. Born from the urgent demands of pre-WWII, the twin-engined Whirlwind was a testament to the nation's innovation, with over a hundred units soaring into action over the turbulent English Channel.

This Hi-Tech model kit brings unparalleled authenticity to your collection, offering a rich assembly experience with ten intricate styrene sprues, including one with clear parts for heightened realism. The inclusion of photo-etched details, 3D-printed enhancements, and resilient resin parts allow you to refine the cockpit to the highest fidelity, even showcasing the formidable Hispano cannon armament if you choose to leave the nose section exposed.

Decorate your Whirlwind with a selection of four meticulously crafted RAF green and grey livery options. Whether you opt for the evocative "Bellows" of No.263 Squadron or the striking black and white wing undersurfaces of Operation Stalker, each decal narrative tells a story of bravery and precision.

Engage with the extraordinary tales of pilots like F/Lt Blackshaw and the intrepid F/O JP Coyne, and immortalise their legacy through your craft. With schemes ranging from the Mixed Grey camouflage to the iconic Day Fighter Scheme, each aircraft model embodies a slice of history, including the Comrades In Arms and aircraft that valiantly partook in pivotal wartime operations.

Build and honour the legacy of the Westland Whirlwind FB Mk.I with Special Hobby's model— a hi-tech tribute to an aircraft that excelled in its role as a fighter and ground attacker, proving indispensable to the Allied efforts in the Second World War.
