¹⁄72

Airfix is to re-release its 1/72 scale Bristol Beaufighter TF.X with two new marking options including RCAF and a Portugese Torbeau

The definitive variant of the Beaufighter and certainly the one most heavily produced, the TF.X was a two seat torpedo strike fighter, known colloquially as the Torbeau. Carrying a combination of rockets, cannon and an 18 inch mark XII torpedo, these rugged aircraft attacked shipping at high speed and low altitude, often with rocket firing Beaufighters drawing anti-aircraft fire so the torpedo equipped aircraft could deliver their weapons more effectively.

Re-Release date Autumn 2020Marking options include:

NE335 - Beaufighter MkX RCAF EEH
BF17Beaufighter MkX Portugese Air Force 8 Esquadrilla

A04019A - Bristol Beaufighter TF.X – 1/72
