Googled:

The only serial version of the Beaufighter that flew Merlin in-line engines was the Mk.IIF version. Manufacturers of plastic models mass-produce only versions with Hercules star engines. For those who want to have something ordinary at home, our prepared sets will probably make you happy. In 1/72 scale they will be designed for the Airfix model and in 1/48 scale for the Revell model. There will be two sets for each scale, the Beaufighter Mk.IIF 'Early Exhausts' Conversion Set and the Beaufighter Mk.IIF 'Late Exhausts' Conversion Set. The difference will be engine nacelles with different designs of exhausts and also camouflage. Sets will contain decals.

All mass-produced versions of Beaufighter aircraft were powered by Hercules star engines. The only exception was the Beaufighter Mk.II. It was powered by Merlin engines. In addition to the British, they were also used by Polish, Canadian, Czechoslovak and Australian units and pilots. The set offers conversion parts for aircraft with an older type of exhaust. It also contains etchings and decals for three RAF machines.
