Product introduction 1/48 scale plastic model. During the development of the Typhoon, the Type N with the Napier Saber engine and the Type R with the Rolls-Royce Vulture engine were developed, and the Type R, named Tornado, took its first flight in October 1939. The Type N, named Typhoon, made its first flight in February 1940 due to delays in the development of the engine itself, and it was determined that although its high-speed flight characteristics were quite good, it had a strong tendency to sway to the right during takeoff. After that, production of the Tornado was discontinued due to problems with the engine supplied to it, making it difficult to put it into practical use.On the other hand, the IA of the Typhoon, equipped with the new Saber IIA engine, was produced, followed immediately by the IB equipped with a cannon. As a result, practical application was hurried. However, because it was deployed in combat without sufficient practical test results, problems arose in various places, resulting in a fatal accident in which the entire tail section was damaged. However, at that time, the only aircraft faster than the Fw190 at low altitudes was the Typhoon, and its four 20mm cannons could crush the enemy with a single hit. The defective tail section was resolved, and from November 1942, the aircraft launched an attack on the German-occupied continent of Europe, destroying airfields, ships, and railroads, achieving great results.
