1/144 resin WWII British Hawker Tempest Mk II Fighter

This hand made item is an unassembled 1/144 scale resin model kit of a Hawker Tempest Mk II, a WWII British fighter aircraft. Our kit has parts for either a MK V, Mk VI, or a MK II. This one has decals for the MK II. This version of the Tempest had a radial engine. The Tempest MK II actually entered service AFTER the MK V. The kit is all white polyurethane resin [plastic] with decals and scale drawings.

This kit is one of our line of detailed 1/144 WWII fighters. The line includes many variants not widely available in 1/144 scale. The kits are "one-piece" castings with some small detail parts including clear [polyester resin] canopies, landing gear, oil coolers, air scoops etc. They are intended for the experienced model builders and collectors. They build great-looking models.

The kits were originally designed and produced by Vitaslav Kopecky [Kopecky Resins] in the Czech Republic and are now molded and cast in South Carolina. The decals are designed and printed by Yuuichi Kurakami [Y-Kraft] in Japan.

Youtube has an excellent reference video of the Hawker Tempest Mk II entitled "Hawker Tempest Mk. II".

Visit and bookmark the Wings Palette website for reference pictures of almost any aircraft.
