This is the kit I shall be using for this build, its been around a few years now since its release in 2009. Although it does come with RAF markings i shall be using some aftermarket ones more appropriate for the anniversary but more about those later.

BigGrin The Sopwith Snipe was designed in 1917 and first flew in 1918 taking part in the last months of the war. Designed as a replacement for the Camel it was slightly smaller had a better climb and speed than its predecessor plus it was highly manoeuvrable.

After the war when the Royal Fling Corps and the Royal Navy Air Service were amalgamated to form the RAF the Sopwith Snipe was the aircraft selected as the standard postwar single-seat fighter of the RAF.Cool
