Glen Coleman has just sent us the first photos of Kitty Hawk's highly detailed new largescale Airacobra. Note, this is the first test-shot, so some details may change.
Kit #KH32013 is targeted for release this July, so you may want to rearrange your summer vacation plans!

Please remember, when contacting retailers or manufacturers, to mention that you saw their products highlighted here - on AEROSCALE.

I'll have to sneak this one past the wife.

Kitty Hawk is really cranking out the 1/32 scale kits. 1st the F-86D and now the P39 Q/N. Add in the Tamiya Mosquito, and it going to be a very expensive year for you 1/32 scale builders. Joel

A staple pf early war Allied aviation. I hope it's a step up from the Special Hobby kits.

Hi Robin At the risk of disappointing all those looking for a bizarre plot twist in the upcoming movie, I think you'll find that's just the oil tank. All the best Rowan

Hi again Glen has just sent us the boxart for what looks to be quite a stunner: Kit #KH32013 is still on target for release in July. All the best Rowan

Yep, stunning and it is certainly on my wants list What I need to know is the differences between the Q/N and the D, so I know if I can ditch the "D" version that I am currently building? That build is waiting to see if I can turn this Kitty Hawk kit into a "D" or not!

Mal, it looks like it's mainly armament that's different although there are also engine, armour and prop changes. The D-1 had 20mm cannon while the D-2 had 37mm through the engine, the N & Q both had the 37mm. Check out this on Wiki it should help. As for the kit, Italian markings for the Q I'm in.

Pretty much need a new wing then, but I'll see about altering the wings on this, but that won't make it a simple project so I might just stay with the D that I have and sort out its problems!
