1⁄48
Wednesday, September 14, 2011 - 11:52 PM UTC
MIrage Hobby have announced the welcome re-release of the 1:48 Lublin R.XIII in its floatplane configuration. I vividly remember buying the landplane kit when it was first released some 20+ years ago by Spojnia (what was to me a totally unknown Polish company), and being extremely impressed by the detail and overall quality of the kit.
Lublin R.XIII Ter / Hydro
Reconnaissance seaplane
scale 1/48 | cat. no. 485003
During 1933-1938 the Lublin R-XIII was the most popular liaison aeroplane. A total of 288 in all versions were built. From 1938 on these aircraft were gradually withdrawn from service and replaced by more modern RWD-14 Czapla (Heron) aeroplanes. Nevertheless, the inter-war period saw mass use of the R-XIII. The type was used in liaison, naval and sports aviation. It participated in foreign visits and rallies. In September 1939 the Polish Air Force still used some 150 R-XIIIs, including 50 in first line units.
