15 September 1940 is remembered as the turning point of the Battle of Britain. On that day, RAF fighters repelled the largest Luftwaffe attack, proving true the words: “Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.”
On this anniversary, we are proud to announce our upcoming 2025 release:
Hawker Hurricane Mk I in 1/48 scale – brand new tooling!
The kit represents the later Mk I variant with metal wings, as flown during the Battle of Britain and in subsequent campaigns. The fuselage, wings, radiator and propellers have been designed from scratch to ensure exceptional accuracy and rich surface detail. The cockpit and canopy sprues, taken from our acclaimed Hurricane Mk IIb, complement the new parts to create a model that combines proven engineering with newly tooled components.
The release is planned for late November 2025, just before Christmas.

You absolute stars!! This is the best news I’ve read all year and I hope it is as successful as the MK.II kits seem to have been. Finally I can add a good BoB Hurricane and complete a long standing project.
Thank you so much, Nicholas! 🙏 We’re really glad this release made your day. The Battle of Britain Hurricane has been high on our wish list too, and we’ve put a lot of effort into making it worthy of such an iconic aircraft. We can’t wait to see it help you complete your project – be sure to share your build when the time comes!
I certainly will although it will be nowhere near as good as some you show. It will be a Polish squadron obviously.
You lovely people are getting it absolutely right for me at least. I hope an RAF boxing of the P-400 follows with slotted machine gun barrels without the flash hider. I have a few uses for them…..
