The Guillow's MkIB Typhoon Aircraft Balsa 18" Wingspan Kit# 906 comes with detailed plans and flies great for free-flight.
The Typhoon MK1B, known as the “Tiffy”, distinguished itself in the Battle of Normandy by destroying 137 tanks and opening the way for the liberation of France and Belgium. Nos 56 and 609 squadrons based at Duxford received their first Typhoons in 1941. In 1942, No. 609 squadron moved to Manston and surpassed Spitfires at intercepting Fw 190s. Typhoons destroyed the first two Me210s over the British Isles. The aircraft was in its true element with eight 3” rockets and 4-20mm cannons designed to wreak havoc on other aircraft and for ground support.
