Roden SPAD XIII C1 WWI French Fighter Model Kit (Scale 1:32)

Product Information

1:32 scale model assembly kit of the SPAD XIII C1.

World War I fighter, created by SPAD in 1917 and broadly based on the earlier SPAD VIIc1.

Compared with the previous type, it had a slightly larger oversall size, and revised cowling shape and control surfaces. The early version machine had wings with rounded ends. In 1917-1918, almost 8,000 fighters of this type were built in total, operated not only by the French Air Force, but also by other countries such as Great Britain, the United States and Italy. Many famous aces such as Georges Guynemer, Francesco Baracca and Eddie Rickenbacker, flew this aircraft, winning a significant number of their victories in the air.

The combat service of the machine continued even in the first postwar years, and in the new US Army Air Service until the early 1920s the SPAD XIII was one of the most important fighter aircraft.
