Italeri 1/48 P-40 E/K Kittyhawk: A Compact Scale History Piece

The Italeri 1/48 scale P-40 E/K Kittyhawk model offers modellers a compact yet accurate representation of the Curtiss-derived fighter. The P-40 served across many WWII fronts, from North Africa to the Pacific islands. This kit reflects the type's robust construction and its Allison V-12 powerplant, rated at over 1,150 horsepower and capable of roughly 580 km/h.

Fidelity in armament and finishes

This kit recreates the P-40E layout used by US and Commonwealth squadrons, including the six M2 Browning guns and underwing hardpoints for ordnance. Super decals for two versions are supplied to assist with historically accurate finishes.

Building Experience

Builders will appreciate the clear colour instruction sheet and quality parts which support precise assembly and painting to reproduce the P-40E appearance.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Material: PS Plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Decals: Super decals for 2 versions
  • Instructions: Colour instruction sheet included
The supplied cockpit detail is good for the scale but many builders add resin or photo-etch details and seatbelts to enhance realism.
Refer to the colour instruction sheet for the two decal options. Historically common finishes include olive and neutral greys for desert and temperate operations.
Aftermarket decal sheets exist for various P-40 schemes; check compatibility with 1/48 P-40 kits before purchasing.
