Why this kit matters
The Morane-Saulnier MS.406 was the most widely produced French fighter aircraft during the early stages of World War II. Entering service in 1938, it played a key role in the defence of France during the Battle of France in 1940. The MS.406 was known for its manoeuvrability and was flown by several Allied air forces, including those of Finland and Switzerland.
Despite being outclassed by newer enemy fighters, the MS.406 gave a valiant performance and became a symbol of French resistance in the air. Its legacy lives on in aviation history, making it a popular subject for scale model builders and history buffs alike.
