The Special Hobby 1:72 scale model kit of the Short Sunderland Mk I/II pays homage to one of the most iconic flying boats in aviation history. The later Mk II models featured a single dorsal gun turret, a characteristic shared with later variants.
Known as "The Flying Porcupine," the Sunderland played a key role in WWII as a long-range anti-submarine aircraft. The Mk I version entered service before the war, while the Mk II became the first to serve in combat, featuring a sharp-shaped hull step and twin dorsal fuselage gunner positions.
This kit includes highly detailed interior parts and a decal sheet featuring markings for a 10 Squadron RAAF aircraft and three RAF-operated planes. It's perfect for collectors and model builders who appreciate historical accuracy and craftsmanship.
It provides an authentic representation of this iconic flying boat, allowing enthusiasts to recreate a piece of WWII history with precision and attention to detail.
