The Fairey Fulmar Mk. II is a British two-seat carrier-based fighter that was operated from Royal Navy aircraft carriers during World War II. Used primarily in the Battle of the Mediterranean as well as in Atlantic and Far East campaigns, Fulmar Mk. IIs actively participated in actions such as the Battle of Malta and Allied support operations in North Africa. Its cockpit was exceptionally well-equipped for a carrier aircraft, enabling effective combat in demanding naval conditions.

The Eduard FE1467 set allows for a detailed reconstruction of these unique cockpit details, unavailable in any plastic kit. All parts are properly scaled, with seatbelts and instrument panels reproduced with the highest fidelity, often with colored printing. The modeller is able to achieve a realistic effect at a competition model level.

We recommend this product to both intermediate and experienced modellers – the set requires precision and basic knowledge of photo-etch work (difficulty level: 3/5). However, it allows you to take your aircraft modelling to an entirely new level and will satisfy even the most demanding aviation history enthusiasts.
