Airfix has just released a plastic conversion set for the Vickers Valiant Photo-Reconnaissance and Refuelling Variants.
With this conversion set you can convert the basic Airfix valiant into the:
-Valiant B[PR]K Mk.I
-Valiant B[K] Mk.I
Decals are also included with this release.
Despite being originally designed as a high level nuclear bomber the Valiant also found itself impressed into a number of other roles. Its large bomb bay and stable flight platform made it a natural choice for high level Photo reconnaissance. Also, a hose and drum unit was installed in the bomb bay capable of transporting fuel from the Valiant to another aircraft. This additional sprue and decal sheet, when added to the main Airfix Valiant kit (A11001), enables the PR or refueller variant to be built.
Ref no: AX65000
Price: £9.99
This is an interesting development from Airfix. It will be very useful if you have more than one Valiant in your stash and you want to build some variations.
