| > 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.

Superb readybuilt display model robustly manufactured in wood and finished in Royal Navy livery to a very high standard. Again there are very few display models of this standard available, particularly of this remarkable aircraft. Although appearing more suited to WW1 the Swordfish served with distinction throughout WW2 and notable successes included disabling the Bismark and the attack on the Italian fleet at Taranto. More mundane but no less important was anti submarine work in the Battle of the Atlantic. It was of course affectionately known as the `Stringbag'. Another connoiseur's item - definitely the nicest model you'll see of the Swordfish..
