These aircraft were used mainly in the final period of World War II—from 1944 until the end of the conflict. Only 130 units of the “M” version were built, serving primarily in the 56th Fighter Group of the USAF. This machine was distinguished by the use of a more powerful Pratt \u0026amp; Whitney R-2800 engine, enabling speeds exceeding 740 km\/h, making it highly effective in intercepting German V-1 flying bombs and jet aircraft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/48 – proportional, faithfully reproduced model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of use: United States of America\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeriod of use: World War II (especially 1944-1945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePurpose: intercepting Luftwaffe aircraft, bomber escort, combating V-1 flying bombs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures of the Tamiya 61096 Model\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory: plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic (polystyrene)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded: parts to assemble the aircraft, sharply defined panel lines, decal options for several machines, detailed cockpit with optional canopy position, optional underwing armament (bombs, rockets, fuel tanks)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet does NOT include: glue, paints, modeling tools – available separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdditions: precise decals, clear canopy, detailed engine and landing gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDifficulty level: 3\/5 – recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength when assembled: approx. 23 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis model is dedicated to military aviation enthusiasts and collectors of World War II models.
