Authentic 1/48 reproduction of the Avro Lancaster

The Avro Lancaster B Mk.I/III was a defining heavy bomber of World War II, equipped with four Rolls Royce Merlin engines and produced in quantities near 7,377. Its role in strategic operations remains central to wartime aviation collections.

This 1/48 kit delivers the scale and detail needed to recreate the Lancaster with careful modelling techniques, ideal for display cabinets and historical dioramas.

Precision detail for accurate assembly

Targeted at builders who focus on authenticity, the kit supplies parts for both early and late Mk.I and Mk.III formations. The cockpit, rear turret and main gear bay are modelled with fine detail to support a convincing finished model.
