Representing a significant advancement in aviation technology compared to the biplane fighters which were still in widespread service during the mid 1930s, the Spitfire would go on to see service throughout the Second World War, undergoing constant development to keep it at the forefront of fighter design. Introduced as something of an interim design, the Mk.V would go on to be the most heavily produced variant of Spitfire and featured the more powerful Merlin 45 engine and highly advanced universal wing, which allowed different armament options to be fitted to the fighter with relative ease. To further extend the pure enjoyment Airfix can bring to so many, these new simpler to build-and-paint Starter Sets are perfect for any beginner. This fantastic new model comes not only come with a more child-friendly build, but also a brilliant bespoke 'shadow-effect' stand to mount them on. Complete with painting guides, water-based acrylic paint, adhesive and a brush, this kit is a great start to anyone's model building career! BAE SYSTEMS is a registered trade mark of BAE Systems plc.

Parts fit well together requiring minimum sanding and Decals are pretty good too. ## Frequently Bought Together - Airfix Model Airplane Kit Starter Set - A55001 Supermarine Spitfire MkVc, Plastic Plane Model Kits for Adults & Kids 14+, Skill Level 1, 1:72 Scale WW2 Military Aircraft Models, Real Aeroplane Models - Tamiya 87038 Extra Thin Cement Glue Fine Tip 40ml - Rustark 9Pcs Gundam Model Tools Kit Hobby Building, Repairing and Fixing Set for Kids --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.lk/products/559103728-starter-set-a55001-supermarine-spitfire-mkvc](https://www.desertcart.lk/products/559103728-starter-set-a55001-supermarine-spitfire-mkvc) --- *Product available on Desertcart Sri Lanka* *Store origin: LK* *Last updated: 2026-08-29*
