CORGI AA32815 1/72 DE HAVILLAND MOSQUITO FBVI No.515 SQUADRON BASED AT LITTLE SNORING IN APRIL 1945 - LAST ONE
de Havilland Mosquito FB.Mk VI
Designed in a private venture as a high-altitude, high-speed unarmed bomber, the de Havilland DH.98 Mosquito was first flown on November 25th, 1940. The Mosquito was one of the most successful aircraft of the Second World War. Only the Ju 88 could rival its versatility. Powered by two Rolls-Royce Merlin engines, the all-wood Mosquito was as fast as a fighter and could carry the payload of a medium bomber. During its lifetime, the Mosquito was used in varying roles, which included night fighter and ground attack. It carried radar systems and cannons, and there was even a carrier landing version.
