1:48 3D paper model of the Sopwith Camel Comic, a WWI British night-fighter.
The "Comic" was a Camel variant designed specifically for night-fighting duties. The twin Vickers guns were replaced by two Lewis guns on Foster mountings firing forward over the top wing, as the muzzle flash of the Vickers guns could blind the pilot. To allow reloading of the guns, the pilot was moved about 12 inches (30 cm) to the rear, and to compensate, the fuel tank was moved forward. It served with Home Defense Squadrons against German air raids. The "Comic" nickname was unofficial, and was shared with the night-fighter version of the Sopwith 1½ Strutter.
Kit contains six 1:48 models with different liveries, used by Home Defense squadrons in 1918.
