Conclusion
Arma Hobby’s brand new 1/48 scale P-39 Airacobra is a gorgeous kit with its crisp surface textures, high moulding quality, thoughtful parts breakdown, useful options and very high level of detail.
Although not all the options on the sprues are mentioned in the intructions, you will be able to build P-39D/P-400 to P-39N and Q. variants straight from the parts in the box.
This is a another excellent offering from Arma Hobby.
