Wingnut Wings 1/32 Scale Bristol F.2b Fighter Post War Model Kit

Initially conceived in early 1916 as the Bristol R.2a reconnaissance aircraft to replace the RFC’s aging BE2 series, Frank Barnwell’s design evolved into the Bristol Fighter in July 1916 following the incorporation of the brand new Rolls Royce 190hp ‘Falcon’ engine. An order was placed for 50 aircraft and the first production Bristol F.2a Fighter (A3303) made the types maiden flight on 9 September 1916.
