1/48 Bristol F.2B Fighter

The Bristol F.2B Fighter was a two-seat fighter and reconnaissance aircraft of the British Royal Flying Corps, first introduced in 1916. Despite initial setbacks, the F.2B proved to be a powerful and agile machine, capable of competing with even single-seat fighters. The aircraft was deployed on both the Western and Middle Eastern fronts and served until the early 1930s.
