Two examples were ultimately built bearing civilian registrations NX41963 and NX41964, both of which will reportedly be represented in the new release.
The company also plans to release additional 1/48 and 1/72 versions of the P-63 A/C/E – several of which will reportedly be available by the end of the month.
