DBMK has completed the CAD model for their 1/32 Spitfire Mk.21, which is now ready for tooling.
As previously reported, the SF.21 was uniquely advanced due to its new laminar flow wing, which was much stiffer than those of earlier Spitfires and allowed for higher speeds and improved handling at all altitudes. Its standardized armament of four 20mm Hispano cannons gave it unprecedented firepower for the Spitfire series, and revised undercarriage geometry enhanced ground stability. As a late / post-war fighter, the F.21 was the pinnacle of piston-engine Spitfire development and bridged the transition to the next generation of British fighters.
The new kit will reportedly be high pressure injection molded plastic primarily with integral 3DP parts and photoetch. DBMK is aiming for release later this year. Click below to check out additional renders.
