| > Bravo Delta Desktop Display Models | Bravo Delta Models are exceptional museum quality and faithfully reproduced in kiln dried Mahogany. Each is carved, joined and sanded by hand. The deep, rich finish that distinguishes these models from others is created by the application of up to 35 coats of enamel. The artist then hand paints all of the details onto each model. The final product is a beautifully authentic model which is fully built and finished and packed in a strong shipping carton.
Every model has its own desk stand. All the propellers are made of wood and will rotate. Some of the jets have movable swing wings, also made of wood.
Models in stock are listed, many of those that aren't are available within 7 to 10 days. Special order items cost about £275.00 each and take at least 4 months, often 6, to arrive. Enquire to gm@antics.ltd.uk.
A brass finish nameplate is available for each model.
| Bravo Delta 1/40 Hawker Sea Hawk FGA Mk 4 Antics Special (WV801)
The Sea Hawk was quite a remarkable aircraft, being Hawker's first jet and with unswept wings, but remained in service long after swept wing fighters had become almost universal. Few models have been made of the Sea Hawk and ours depicts the livery worn at the time of the Suez crisis. This aircraft, WV801, of No. 804 Squadron, Fleet Air Arm, was flown by Lt. P. McKeown, RN, aboard HMS Eagle, Mediterranean, 1956. Exclusively produced for Antics and with only 25 made. Fly Navy! A good sized model, measuring 17” long x 15 ½” x 2 ¾” (10” high on the display stand that is included! (432mm x 394mm x 70mm in metric)
Antics Special Commission - 25 Models Only Aeroplane contained a very interesting article by a pilot, Air Vice-Marshall George Black - then a Flight Lieutenant, on flying the Sea Hawk in the Suez conflict. To quote; "I can't think of any other type I would wish to have flown into combat in 1956 - it was better suited to the ground-attack role than any other British aircraft then in service". | |
