The Mk. IIC was developed in response to increased effectiveness of German bombers and ground-attack aircraft. What set it apart from earlier versions was its powerful armament – four Hispano-Suiza 20mm cannons mounted in the wings, which gave it an edge in air combat as well as high effectiveness in ground attack and close-support missions. The Mk. IIC was also used as a night fighter and for convoy escort duties. It served from 1941 until the end of WWII with British units, and was also used by Allied forces including the Polish, Canadian, Australian air forces, and other Commonwealth countries.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/48 – the ideal balance between detail and display convenience.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory: plastic model kit (set does not include glue or paints).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Italeri – a renowned brand with a long tradition of high-quality models.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: high quality plastic (styrene), photo-etched parts, decals for 6 historical versions from various units.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRealistically rendered details: precise silhouette, armament, cockpit with photo-etched elements for increased authenticity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYears of original service: WWII (1941–1945), with the Royal Air Force and other Allied forces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty level: 4\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e – intended for intermediate and advanced modelers.
