Description:

Morane-Saulnier MS.406C1 In 1934, the French Armee de l'Air announced a competition for a single-wing fighter with a speed of 450 km/h and armament of one to two 20 mm cannon. The winner of the competition was the Morane Saulnier MS-405C.1. Only 16 of this version were produced, and production switched to a modified version of the MS-406C.1. It was powered by an H-S 12Y.31 engine and was armed with a cannon firing through the propeller hub and two machine guns in the wing. 1,064 were produced, including the export ones. At the beginning of the war, the MS-406C.1 was the most numerous fighter type that France had at its disposal. It exceeded the German Bf-109D in terms of performance, but lagged behind the most modern version of the Bf-109E. Units flying the MS-406 C.1 were deployed not only in France, but also in North Africa and Indochina. French fighters fought on the MS-406C.1 from the beginning of the war until the defeat of France. Along with them, Czechoslovak and Polish pilots. The Morans were also used by the Armee de'l Armistice air force. Several of them were also used by the Free French air force. Furthermore, the MS-406C.1 was purchased and entered the service of Turkey, Finland and Switzerland. Due to the occupation of France, the captured machines entered the service of Germany, Italy and Croatia. Other machines were purchased from Germany by Finland. Switzerland also built the MS-406C.1 under license and further developed it.
We are returning the kit of this very important fighter in 1/32 scale to the offer after a long time. Four sprues of grey plastic parts and one sprue of clear parts are complemented by resin parts and two frets of etches. Decals are offered for three machines, two French, one of which flew with the Polish unit and therefore bears the Polish chessboard on the sides of the fuselage. The third machine is a Finnish Morane, decorated with a mouth full of sharp teeth.
