With 91 parts across both models, 1:72 scale and skill level 2, this Airfix set is ideal for modellers aged 8 and above who want to improve their skills. Typhoon ZJ914 Blackjack became one of the most loved RAF display aircraft of the 21st century and wore this admired scheme for three complete display seasons, as well as during the early preparation months for the 2024 airshow season. The black design also recalls the RAF Shorts Tucano T.1 display of 2008, which commemorated the 90th anniversary of the Royal Air Force.
