Revell is to release in the beginning of August the night fighter version of the Bristol Beaufighter in 1/48 scale
The Beaufighter IF was one of the first aircraft to be equipped with radar for night hunting. Hidden in their own bomber stream, they waited for the rear-facing radar to come up attacking enemy night fighters, only to pounce on them.

Details include:
●Cockpit with consoles and instrument panel
●Separate rudder
●V-tail with separate elevators
●Detailed Hercules engines
●Separate ailerons and flaps

03854 - Beaufighter IF Nightfighter – 1/48

CMK did a Mk.II conversion with the Merlin engines for the Tamiya kit. I have one, now what would be interesting although of limited appeal would be a Mk.V
