AZ Model AZ7353 Supermarine Spitfire Mk.22 Special (1/72)

The AZ Model AZ7353 kit represents the legendary Supermarine Spitfire Mk.22 fighter aircraft in 1:72 scale, one of the last and most advanced variants of this iconic fighter. This product is designed for aviation modeling enthusiasts who value a high level of accuracy and attention to historical details.

Realistic scale model – a unique variant of the British fighter

The Supermarine Spitfire Mk.22 was used mainly by the Royal Air Force (RAF) of Great Britain in the post-war period, specifically from 1946 to 1951. The Mk.22 version was distinguished by the use of the Rolls-Royce Griffon 61 engine, a heavily reworked broad dorsal fin, and a five-blade propeller. These features improved the aircraft’s performance, making it one of the fastest Spitfires ever built. The Mk.22 was used primarily for fighter missions within Britain during the early Cold War years and also participated in training flights and patrols. These aircraft symbolized the end of the propeller-driven fighter era, just before the advent of jet fighters.
