Why this kit matters
The De Havilland Mosquito was one of the most versatile aircraft of the Second World War. Built mainly from wood, it achieved high speed with reduced weight and became known as the Wooden Wonder. It served as a bomber, fighter, reconnaissance aircraft, and pathfinder.
The B.XVI and B.35 variants were late war and post war bombers, while the TT.35 served as a target tug for training. The Mosquito flew with the RAF and many allied air forces, earning a reputation for speed, strength, and wide mission use.
How to use it
