Post Description

In 1942, after the country was bombed several times by Japanese aircraft operating from captured islands, the Australian government decided to order a fighter derived from the A 20 Wirraway to quickly counter any possible assault. This aircraft was to become the Boomerang. Despite its manoeuvrability, it was not a very efficient fighter, but was used successfully in ground support. A mix of Thunderbolt and egg plane, The Boomerang had been tackled by Limited which has released a very short run product. The Special Hobby version is superior in terms of details and engraving, but needs a few adjustments. This boomerang is very characteristic of recent Special Hobby products. Great care is taken with engraving anddetails while big adjustments are sometimes not obvious and require some experience. A very good kit, but more particularly suited to experience modellers.
