DH.98 Mosquito NF Mk.XV 'High-Altitude Night Fighter' 1:72 New 2026
During the Second World War, the high-altitude bomber and reconnaissance Junkers Ju-86P and R aircraft appeared over Great Britain. Initially, the RAF was unable to intervene against them, until the high-altitude versions of the Spitfire Mk.VII and the modified Spitfire Mk.IX brought about a turning point. The threat that the Luftwaffe would deploy more powerful bombers led to the development of a high-altitude fighter version of the Mosquito. This version had a pressurized cockpit, a radar in the nose, an extended wing with a span of 19 meters, high-altitude engines Merlin 76 with four-blade propellers. A small batch of 'fifteens' were produced and assigned to No.85 Sqn. RAF for testing.
The detailed kit offers decals for two machines, one in PRU Blue and the other in Deep Blue.
