Tamiya 61111 1/48 Avro Lancaster B Mk.III Dambuster and Mk.I Grand Slam Kit  [61111]

Tamiya 61111 Avro Lancaster Model Overview

The Avro Lancaster became a defining heavy bomber for the Royal Air Force during World War II. The Mk.III Dambuster is noted for its bouncing bomb modifications while the Mk.I Grand Slam was adapted to carry the 10-ton Grand Slam earthquake bomb for attacking hardened targets.

Tamiya's 1/48 scale kit honours that history with finely moulded parts and options to build either the Mk.I Grand Slam or Mk.III Dambuster configuration, aimed at builders who value scale fidelity and detail.
