Academy 12339 - 1/48 RAF B-25C/D European Theatre: Detailed RAF Mitchell Replica

The Academy 1/48 RAF B-25C/D European Theatre model kit delivers a careful scale depiction of one of World War II's versatile bombers. Favoured for its sturdy layout and operational flexibility, the Mitchell served across many missions in Europe, and this kit reflects that legacy with accurate external and cockpit detailing for collectors and scale builders.

Operational History and Scale Accuracy

The B-25 Mitchell earned praise for adaptability and reliability during WWII. This release recreates the RAF-operated variants with period-appropriate features, allowing hobbyists to study the airframe and markings in a compact 1/48 representation. The model balances historical accuracy with clear assembly flow for realistic results.

Build Approach and Final Display

Targeted at intermediate to advanced builders, the Academy B-25C/D requires steady assembly and careful painting to realise authentic finishes. The instruction sequence supports stepwise construction, and once finished the model makes an impressive shelf or diorama subject that highlights the Mitchell's distinctive silhouette.
