Orion Field Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 I am by no means an RAF aficionado, but one of my customers is interested in commissioning a model of the Fairey Battle in 1/72nd scale. He didn't specify what version, but I was thinking why not include parts for the MkI, MkII, and MkV. I have been looking a drawings of the MkI and MkII, and honestly can't see much of an external difference. Maybe someone here can help me out by pointing out what I'm missing.

martin_sam_2000 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 as far as I know there was no noticeable differences. The only thing that changes was the engine..Merlin I in the MkI, Merlin II in the MkII, and surprise of surprises, a Merlin V in the MkV. Sean Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dogsbody Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 The only visible difference that I'm aware of is the exhaust pipes. The early ones were fitted with the kidney or slotted type while later ones had triple ejector style exhaust. Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
