Seagull Models De Havilland Mosquito 80in / 2.03m (SEA-285) 5500027

Constructed almost entirely of plywood and powered by twin Merlin V12s, the DeHavilland Mosquito was incredibly fast and maneuverable for a plane of its size. This speed and maneuverability combined with its relatively long range earned it a variety of combat roles during World War II that included everything from low-level reconnaissance to anti-shipping and night fighter missions.

This is the model on every flyer’s wish list but, until now, few have dared to hope that an ARTF version of the iconic twin would be a possibility. Well, now it is thanks to Seagull’s marvellous recreation of De Havilland’s DH.98 Mosquito. It sticks closely to Seagull’s tradition of creating strong models with the practical perspective in mind. And there’s a lot in the box too, so all you need add is your radio gear and power system – electric or i.c.
