Re: Hrubisko Workbench
Hi to all,
After a long absent here are some photos of the latest models done by my father. I am glad to post some photos again.
13) Defiant AA292 P used for Martin Baker Ejection Seat trials during October 1945
14) Defiant Mk I L6957 PS/T 264 Sqn Duxford 1940
15) Defiant Mk II N1550 first prototype of MkII in 1940
16) Defiant Mk II N1550 first prototype of MkII in 1942
Both prototype together
17) Defiant Mk I AA414 M 515 Squadron. Its role was in electronic countermeasures warfare, jamming enemy radar using Moonshine and Mandrel
All the 17 Bouton Paul Defiant made so far. The final number will be around 25 models
I have started to separate the information about the North American P51 which will probably be an important series with more than 50 models.
Cheers
Santiago

Re: Hrubisko Workbench
More superb work guys. Very impressive. I am looking forward to following the P51 builds. It's a pity I couldn't meet up with your father when he came over here. It would have been an honour to meet him.
All the best.

Re: Hrubisko Workbench
Always class models from your father, Santiago and in these series builds I nearly always see versions that I never knew existed of a type that I'm otherwise quite familiar with! Wonderful.

Re: Hrubisko Workbench
Hi guys,
These are the latest and final Defiants done by my Father.
20) Defiant TT1 AA544 103 16497 AACU N° 26
The Twins.
21) Defiant DS155 N°22 AACU Karachi India Flown by Sq Ldr Young
22) Defiant N3512
¨Both engine and airframe experimental work was carried out there starting in the middle of 1941 and not ending until late in 1944. The Merlin XLV was fitted in June 1941 followed by a Merlin XLVI. The pilots canopy was retained and the retractable fairing behind it locked in the down position with the turret faired over. Carburetter development also came within the aegis of Farnboroughs work especially at high altitiudes. N3512 flew some 70 hours in theses tests
.
23) Defiant N3379
24) Defiant TT1 AA591 June 1944
25) Defiant TTIII S5/W T3919 691 Sqd
26) Defiant TTIII DS121 of 733 NAS 1945
Here are the 26 Defiants in our display cabint.
The final photos will come soon.........

Re: Hrubisko Workbench
Some terrific work here as always. That is a lot of Defiants! Are the target tugs modified Airfix kits or that odd one from Pegasus?
