Airfix 1/72 Vickers Wellington MK.IA/C Bomber Scaled Plastic Model Kit
Capture an early-war RAF workhorse with the Vickers Wellington, a detailed 1/72 Airfix replica featuring both RAF and captured Luftwaffe markings
Key Features
- 1/72 Scale Vickers Wellington Mk.IA/C Model Kit
- An iconic British medium bomber of early WWII
- Features surface detail representing the geodetic construction
- Includes two scheme options (RAF and Luftwaffe)
- A rewarding project for intermediate modellers
Overview
The twin-engine Vickers Wellington was the RAF's most capable medium bomber when it entered service in 1938. Its most significant feature was the revolutionary geodetic construction method developed by Barnes Wallis, giving the fuselage incredible strength despite its light weight. This inherent toughness allowed numerous Wellingtons to bring their crews home despite suffering significant battle damage during the early years of WWII.
This 1/72 scale kit from Airfix is a detailed replica of this iconic British bomber. The model accurately captures the sleek lines of the Wellington and features surface detail representing the unique geodetic structure beneath the fabric skin. The kit includes detailed gun turrets, a full bomb load, and offers two different marking options: an RAF No 9 Squadron aircraft from 1939 and a captured Mk.IC in Luftwaffe markings from 1941.
Features
The kit accurately captures the sleek monoplane design of the Wellington

Two marking options are included: RAF No 9 Squadron (1939) and a captured Luftwaffe aircraft (1941)
Detailed nose, tail, and dorsal gun turrets are included
