"Tenzan" is one of the latest companies on the market. Company HQ is located in Poland and is run by Zygmunt Szeremeta. Tenzan is mainly focused on the resin kits of the Polish made aircraft, or those which were used in Polish Air Force.

The first model which hit the market was a 1/72 scale kit of the flying boat Norman Thompson Nt.2b. Painting schemes provided in the kits, depending on the version of engine and user of course, enables you to build the planes from the United Kingdom, Peru, Japan, Norway, Estonia or Canada.

Still in progress, but supposed to be released very soon, is the Polish aircraft RWD-10 in 1:48 scale. This was a single seat acrobatic airplane used in the Polish pre-war aero clubs. One of the versions possible to be built from the kit parts will be SP-BLN, which was equipped with a gun-camera. This particular machine fought a dogfight in 1937 with the main Polish fighter of that time PZL P-11c. Although slower and equipped with less powerful engine, RWD-10 was the winner of the fight. This is a really interesting variation of the model. As Zygmunt Szeremeta says the kit will also consist of the small PE fret with the instrument panel, seat-belts, small handles etc. As for the painting schemes there will be seven provided. Painting schemes and a page from the instruction sheet is already published on the Tenzan website.

Another quarter-scale bird in progress is RWD-14 "Czapla". It was a Polish observation and close reconnaissance aircraft, designed in mid 1930'. At the outbreak of war it was used by six Polish squadrons and the kit will be provided with the markings of all of these squadrons. A few aircraft were used in Romania after the defeat of Poland in 1939. The kit is supposed to be released in March 2011.
