Spitfire Mk.I 1/48 Scale Model for Collectors and Builders

The Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I is famed for its elegant aerodynamics and combat role in World War II. This Tamiya 1/48 model kit captures the aircraft's clean contours and wing planform with precise plastic components, delivering a satisfying assembly for scale modellers. The Spitfire's contribution to early wartime air combat ensures it remains a preferred subject for collection displays.

Originally designed by Reginald J. Mitchell and first flown in 1936, the Spitfire combined speed and manoeuvrability. The kit reflects authentic features such as the asymmetrical radiator and oil cooler layout and includes the retractable landing gear arrangement. External detail also portrays the eight 7.7mm machine guns that equipped the Mk.I.

Who designed the original Spitfire?

The Spitfire was designed by Reginald J. Mitchell, whose work produced the aircraft's distinctive elliptical wing and slim fuselage.

Which engine does the Mk.I model represent?

The Mk.I is associated with the Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, and the kit reproduces the related cowling and intake shapes typical of that powerplant.
