Homebee Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 (edited) Source: http://www.ipmsdeutschland.de/news.html PZL P.42 POLISH LIGHT DIVING BOMBER We are proud to announce you our new model kit - airplane in 1/48 scale PZL P.42 POLISH LIGHT DIVING BOMBER. The prototype of the PZL.42 light dive bomber, based on the PZL.23A Karas, was built during 1936-1939 at the PZL factory in Warsaw. The design team headed by StanisÅ‚aw Prauss was working on developing the PZL.23 Karas. In this prototype, the design was experimentally altered. It was fitted with twin vertical tails and a retractable under-fuselage cupola of the bomb aimer/gunner. This improved the effectiveness of the rudder, particularly when diving, and improved the field of fire of the upper rear gunner. The cupola, when retracted, reduced the drag considerably… V.P.

JWM Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 (edited) From photos above one can notice that all moulds for P23 Karas are in box and one frame with part needed to do double fin is added. The double tail was the difference between produced P 23 Karas and a single prototype of P 42. Edited September 14, 2016 by JWM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
