The Mk.X was the definitive anti-shipping variant, carrying an 18-inch torpedo under the fuselage alongside its standard battery of four 20mm cannons and six .303 machine guns, and fitted with ASV radar for locating targets at sea. Beaufighter Mk.Xs of RAF Coastal Command devastated Axis shipping in the Mediterranean and off the Norwegian coast, and their combination of range, hitting power, and durability made them one of the most feared aircraft by Axis naval forces in any theatre.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCannon, torpedo, and radar — the Beaufighter Mk.X, the scourge of Axis shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis is a vintage model kit.
