The Hawker Tempest Mk.VI, introduced into service in 1945, was the last variant of the famous Tempest series, which was characterised by its robust design and high performance. This version was equipped with the Napier Sabre V engine and modified for tropical operations by the installation of dust filters and improved cooling. The Tempest Mk.VI were intended primarily for deployment in post-war operations in the Middle East, where they were part of the Royal Air Force (RAF).
The Tempest Mk.VIs retained excellent manoeuvrability and could carry armament including machine guns, bombs and rockets, making them versatile machines suitable for a variety of mission types. Thanks to its performance and reliability, the Tempest Mk.VI became a symbol of the technical progress of British aviation in the 1940s.
Special Hobby's 1/32 scale model faithfully reproduces this tropical version, including detailed engine and armament work and authentic markings from the post-war RAF years. It is the ideal choice for modellers who want to bring the history of this exceptional aircraft to life.
The package does not include the paint or glue needed to assemble the model.
