1/72 607-60 Hawk Supermarine Swift
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good++
Very cleanly molded mid-1960s model that builds an accurate reproduction. Features excellent fit & finish, recessed and raised panel lines, optional position landing gear and more. Includes a display stand. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. The Swift was a very early jet fighter to replace the Supermarine Attacker. A very capable aircraft, the Swift suffered numerous accidents early on. As a result, less than 200 were ever built and it did not see combat. It did hold a world speed record for a short time, only to have a Douglas Skyray take the record a few hours later. The problems were ironed out, but by then the Hawker Hunter was proving very capable and there was no need for the Swift and it's RAF service life was short. The most successful version was the PR variant.
