Spitfire PR. Mk. XI 1/48 Die Cast Model, "PL965," Royal Air Force, by Hobby Master HA7607. The Mark XI was basically a Mark IX Spitfire interceptor that had its guns and armour removed, a larger oil tank added in the nose, a more powerful engine, a larger fuel capacity and photographic equipment added for recon missions. The Mk.XI defense was its speed. Spitfire Mk. XI PL965 "R" was manufactured at RAF Aldermaston in 1944 and was delivered on October 9, 1944 to 9 MU before going to the 16 Squadron based in Melsbroek, Belgium. In March 1945 the squadron was relocated to Eindhoven, Netherlands and then on to Celle, Germany before returning to England in 1946. On July 27, 1947 the aircraft was sold to the Royal Netherlands Air Force School and eventually on to the Dutch National War Museum in 1960. After a few more owners and moves the aircraft was painted in her original 16 Squadron markings and still flies today. 1/48 scale pre-finished. Die-cast metal with a minimum of plastic. Professionally painted. All markings pad applied for superb results. Canopy slides open. Comes with a pilot that can be removed. Comes with display stand. Landing gear is fully retractable and can be displayed up or down. Propeller is metal. Extremely sought after by collectors.
