This IBG 1\/72 scale kit captures the Heston Special configuration used during 1940–41, featuring the distinctive unarmed airframe optimised for high-altitude photography missions.\n\nThe PR Type C introduced a pressurised cabin and extended fuel capacity, enabling deep-penetration sorties over enemy territory. This particular variant saw limited production but proved invaluable for strategic intelligence gathering during the early war years.\n\nIBG's detailed tooling includes finely engraved panel lines, accurate cockpit detail, and comprehensive decal options for period-correct markings. The kit captures the sleek lines and purposeful design of this specialised variant, making it an excellent choice for modellers interested in RAF reconnaissance history and Spitfire variants beyond the standard fighter configuration.\n\nSuitable for intermediate to advanced modellers. Glue, paint, and tools required but not included.","brand":"IBG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54359467557205,"sku":"IBG-72583","price":23.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0992\/8287\/8805\/files\/1596478-58348-56-t360.avif?v=1783868808","url":"https:\/\/monstermodelsandgames.co.uk\/products\/ibg-1-72-supermarine-spitfire-pr-type-c-heston-special-1940-41-72583","provider":"Monster Models and Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
