Keep in mind, this is 1/1200!!!! You must see it in person to appreciate the details. I expect it soon to see it soon accompanied by USN Hornet…if you read my previous post you will understand:)

And another member for our 1/1200-1250 range is in production: USN Skate class submarine

I was ask why suddenly we create this range and put that much effort in it. Well aside from business point of view , and that those models (thank to modern technologies) look great. there is another reason- during the “stay at home” period I watch my son, we have great time together, walking around (I live in district with very low density so there was no other people around). We play a lot, and from time to time he ask me what I’m going to give him from my collection…so one day I dig for some old models and find 1/200 USN Hornet, surprisingly he was existed and play a lot with it…and for good behavior I premise him a FLEET Well first I research a little and decide that there is good enough market for these. So we decide to do a dozen (3 more left to prototype) submarines and couple of surface vessels to see if we can work on that market.

Just in case if you start to worry that we concentrate too much on our new range of 1/1200-1250 NAVY items, and forgot all other. We don’t:) The new range need more attention, (because it is new) and more resources so it can develop faster, but we didn’t stop working on other, just slightly slowing down. And just to prove this we put new set in production: Turret for KV-1, initial “round” type

: The Westland Lysander (nickname the “Lizzie”) is a British army co-operation and liaison aircraft produced by Westland Aircraft used immediately before and during the Second World War.

: An entirely different two-seater was produced by the Bell company for internal use. Two Р-бЗЕ-ls were modified by Bell with a separate observer seat in the rear fuselage, located behind the engine and mounted under a separate canopy. A probe was mounted which extended through the spinner, and to make space for the observer the radio equipment had to be moved forward into the armament bay. The aircraft carried the civilian registrations NX41963 and Nx61964

: Numerous surplus P-63s ended up on the air racing circuit in the immediate postwar era. Charles Tucker purchased two P-63s from the disposal facility at Kingman, Arizona just after the war. He entered one of them, the Tucker Special as Race 28 with the name Flying Red Horse emblazoned on the nose (civilian register N62995) in the 1946 Thompson Trophy race. He had clipped the wing by 12 ft 9 in (3.89 m) in an attempt to improve its speed, reducing the span to 25 ft 9 in (7.85 m). The second one (44-4126 (XN63231 Race 30) was intended for the 1946 Bendix cross country race. It was initially fitted with two wingtip drop tanks. In 1947, the drop tanks were removed and the wings were clipped to 28 ft 6 in (8.69 m).

: The Savola-Marchettl S.55 was a double-hulled flying boat produced in Italy, beginning In 1924. Shortly after Its Introduction, it began setting records Ibr speed, payload, altitude and range. The first S.55 crossing was made in 1927 by the Santa Maria under Francesco de Pinedo. After flying south to Bolama, at that time in Portuguese Guinea they hoped to cross the ocean without another stop but were forced down at Cape Verde, reaching Brazil on 23 February 1927. After the crossing, the aircraft was traded to Brazil for coffee beans.

The CH-300 was a conventional, high-wing braced monoplane with fixed tailwheel undercarriage

Like other Bellanca aircraft of the period, it featured “flying struts”.[N l]While the CH-200 was powered by 220 hp Wright J-5 engines, the CH-300 series Pacemakers were powered by 300 hp Wright J-6s.

Holger Hojriis and Otto Hillig of the Bellanca J-300 “Liberty” used on their transatlantic flight from Newfoundland to Copenhagen, June 24-25, 1931. The plane was later sold to Benjamin and Joseph Adamowicz, renamed “Warsaw”, and used on their New York – Warsaw flight of 1934 (r/n NR 797W).
