The B.Mk.II variant was equipped with American Wright Cyclone engines instead of the standard Bristol Pegasus engines, which allowed this version to be used mainly in Canada for crew training as well as for carrying out patrol duties along the Atlantic coast. Hampdens of this variant took part in the first night raids on German targets between 1940 and 1943, mainly during the early stages of the conflict.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    We recommend the \u003cstrong\u003eValom 72066 Handley Page Hampden B.Mk.II\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/72 scale kit to intermediate and advanced aircraft modelers looking for a unique set with exceptionally accurate details.
