The P-40 was a reliable workhorse that was produced in far greater numbers than any other USAAF fighter aircraft in 1941 and 1942 and served with distinction until the end of the Second World War. However, the Warhawk is often overshadowed or even ignored in the annals of aviation history because it was not as glamorous as its more glamorous counterparts on both sides of the conflict. Eduard's new 1:48 scale P-40E kit is an instant classic with its high level of detail, model-friendly design and first-class surface texture. Between these covers, you will find detailed, illustrated step-by-step instructions for building Eduard's 1:48 scale P-40E kit, as well as tips on painting and weathering. Additional inspiration is provided by a second complete build of a 1:48 scale P-40N, which is still available in new editions from Eduard and Academy and can be equipped with numerous accessories. You will also find historical information, references, an examination of earlier 1:48 scale P-40 kits and much more.
