AV Models Yakovlev Yak-19 - Prototype Early Soviet Jet Fighter Aircraft, 1/72, AV109

Multimedia Model Kit,   Box Condition: Sealed NM

$54   

Still factory sealed. Very rare and probably the only known model kit in any scale of this early Soviet Union jet. Very well molded kit with very fine recessed panel lines. The Yakovlev Yak-19 was a prototype Soviet fighter built in late 1940s. It was the first Soviet aircraft to be equipped with an afterburning turbojet, the Klimov RD-10F that was derived from the German Jumo 004 engine. Only two examples were built. The first prototype was ordered to a very demanding schedule and was completed on 29 November 1946. During the manufacturer's flight tests, the Yak-19 became the first Soviet aircraft to exceed 900 km/h. Major Sergei Anokhin was the primary test pilot and reported that the aircraft had pleasant and predictable flying characteristics and presented no difficulties for the average pilot. Before the testing was completed, Anokhin led the jets participating in the fly-past at Tushino Airfield on August 3, 1947. State acceptance tests began on 17 October, using the second prototype and did not go nearly as well. Trials finished on 30 January 1948 and the group of military test pilots concluded that the afterburner was unreliable, the aircraft was difficult to control in roll, the cockpit was deemed was too small and lacked sufficient armor and heating / ventilation. In the end, the Yak-19 was not be recommended for service. Rather than modify the aircraft to address these problems, Yakovlev chose to cancel it entirely in favor of the Yak-23 and Yak-25 fighters now under design/development.

AV Models Tachikawaw Ki-91-I - (Ki94), 1/72, AV073

Resin Model Kit,   Box Condition: Exc

$68   

Beautifully molded in high-definition resin, many PE details, film instrument panels, cast metal landing gear struts, clear canopy (still in mint condition and not yellowed), 'good' cockpit detail and more. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions. The Tachikawa Ki-94 was a single-seat fighter-Interceptor aircraft project undertaken by the Tachikawa Aircraft Company and to be operated by the Imperial Japanese Army. The project refers to two aircraft designs: the Ki-94-I and the Ki-94-II. The Ki-94-I design (this kit) was to be a twin-boom monoplane with two 2,201 hp Mitsubishi Ha211 18-cylinder engines, driving two 4-blade propellers in a push-pull configuration. The very heavy armament of two 37 mm/1.46 in and two 30 mm/1.18 in cannon should have been enough to make short work of most US heavy bombers of the era. Notwithstanding the outstanding prospective performance, it was judged as 'unduly optimistic' by the technical department of the Japanese Army Air Force and was discarded.

Airfix HMS Ark Royal Aircraft Carrier - T4 Issue, 1/600, 04208

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Sealed NM

$54   

Still factory sealed and perhaps still the best injection-molded Ark Royal kit. This full-hull model is well detailed with 171 pieces and includes aircraft. This aircraft carrier was the third vessel of the Royal Navy to be named Ark Royal - the first ship took part in the defeat of the Spanish Armada, and the second was being constructed as a tanker when the Royal Navy took it over and converted it to become the first seaplane carrier. The Ark Royal III was launched in April 13, 1937 and was very active during WWII. She was reported sunk several times by German sources. She took part in the defense of Norway. In October of that year, she and Renown went to the South Atlantic to hunt for the Graf Spee. Later her Skuas took part in a gallant but failed attack on the Scharnhorst. She then moved to Gibraltar with Force H. In May of 1941, she took part in the search for the Bismarck. Her Swordfish torpedo aircraft scored two hits, one of which jammed the rudders of the German Battleship while she was in a tight turn. This hit sealed the fate of Bismarck, and she was later sunk. If this hit would not have occurred, she would have made safe haven at Brest. In November of 1941, the Ark Royal was working the dangerous escort of Malta convoys when she was struck by a torpedo from U-81. Despite all attempts to save her, she went down. Only one sailor lost his life.
