It was the Royal Air Force's first single-seat, twin-engined, cannon-armed fighter, and a contemporary of the Supermarine Spitfire and Hawker Hurricane. It was one of the fastest aircraft in service when it flew in the late 1930s, and was much more heavily armed than any other. However, protracted development problems with its Rolls-Royce Peregrine engines delayed the entire project and only a relatively small number were ever built. During the Second World War, only two RAF squadrons were equipped with the Whirlwind, and despite successful use as a fighter bomber, it was withdrawn from service in 1943.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eScale: 1:48\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eItem Type: Static Kit\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eModel Brief: Length:205mm   Wingspan: 288mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTotal Parts: 70+\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTotal Sprues: 5 sprues\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReleased Date: 2014-03\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMore Features: The kit consists of over 70 parts and includes 2 clear parts - fuselage \u0026amp; wing with finely engraved panel lines\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","published_at":"2023-09-15T09:05:41+02:00","created_at":"2023-06-13T19:49:33+02:00","vendor":"Trumpeter","type":"Scale Model Kits","tags":["Brand_Trumpeter","Category_Aircraft","Scale_1\/48 Scale","Type_Propeller Aircraft"],"price":89995,"price_min":89995,"price_max":89995,"available":false,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44632067178747,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9580208028903","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":false,"name":"Trumpeter - 1\/48 Westland Whirlwind","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":89995,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Trumpeter-1_48WestlandWhirlwind.jpg?v=1686742432"],"featured_image":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Trumpeter-1_48WestlandWhirlwind.jpg?v=1686742432","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":32922490044667,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.528,"height":360,"width":550,"src":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Trumpeter-1_48WestlandWhirlwind.jpg?v=1686742432"},"aspect_ratio":1.528,"height":360,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Trumpeter-1_48WestlandWhirlwind.jpg?v=1686742432","width":550}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch1\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1\/48 Westland Whirlwind\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTrumpeter 02890\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExcludes all \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/collections\/plastic-kit-model-glues\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eglues\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/collections\/paints\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003epaints\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/collections\/tools-desk-top-storage\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003etools\u003c\/a\u003e necessary to assemble.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Westland Whirlwind was a British twin-engined heavy fighter developed by Westland Aircraft.
