New Review: P-40E Warhawk Royal Class Dual Combo

[IPMSUpdates]

Late last year I asked Santa to pre-order Eduard’s P-40E Warhawk Royal Class Dual Combo kit for me. Eduard’s new 1/48^th P-40 is the first newly tooled P-40E that I’m aware of since Hasegawa’s 2005 kit. The Hasegawa kit is pretty good, but there were some engineering choices that made it less fun to build than it could have been. I’m surprised that it has taken 20 years for another manufacturer to get around to kitting such an iconic aircraft. Airfix’s 2016 kit is of the earlier Tomahawk/P-40B version.
