The Italeri 1/48 P-40 E/K Kittyhawk gives scale modellers a compact but faithful representation of the Curtiss P-40 family. From its P-36 roots the P-40 proved adaptable across deserts and islands alike. The kit reflects the aircrafts sturdy frame and Allison V-12 engine performance, listed at over 1,150 horsepower and speeds up to 580 km/h.
The P-40E, used by U.S. and Commonwealth squadrons, is modelled with accurate features including six M2 Browning machine guns and underwing hardpoints for ordnance. Super decals for two schemes are included to help create display-ready models.
Hobbyists will find the construction rewarding, with precise moulding and a colour instruction sheet to guide painting and assembly for an authentic finish.
