The first units entered service with Coastal Command at the end of 1939. In the Mk I version, as many as 1,014 units of this model were produced. These aircraft took active part in combat operations from April 1940. They were widely used for mining sea ports, conducting daytime and nighttime torpedo attacks, as well as bombing coastal targets. One of the most famous episodes involving the Bristol Beaufort was the successful torpedo attack on the German battleship \"Gneisenau\" in April 1941. From March 1942, these aircraft also operated extensively in the Mediterranean, flying from Malta—an RAF key base during the Mediterranean campaign.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/48\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of use:\u003c\/strong\u003e United Kingdom – Royal Air Force (RAF)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHistorical period:\u003c\/strong\u003e World War II (1939-1945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e high-quality plastic for assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e plastic model kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet contents:\u003c\/strong\u003e plastic sprues, decals with authentic RAF markings, clear cockpit parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional items:\u003c\/strong\u003e the kit does not include glue or paints, allowing the modeler to select materials suited to their preferred painting techniques\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe ICM 48310 model offers highly detailed representation of the fuselage structure, wings, cockpit, and armament, enabling the faithful recreation of the historical appearance of this famous bomber.
