As the tinlid says.  Looking for a 1/72 18in aerial torpedo, of WWII vintage.   I am willing to pay for Postage and Packaging to Downunder.

If the Airfix floatplane Swordfish has one of those included, I've got one going spare.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

That'd be great mate.  Lets see if you can find it!

Yeah, that'd be the problem. But I think I saw it in the Model Room a week or so back.

I won't be home till Monday so the search will start then.

Brian.

I've a couple in the British WWII weapons spares box, probably from Beaufighters.  So probably 18". One has the two cradles attached the other doesn't.

Any use ?

As it appears Chris has exactly what I need - a torpedo with crutches - he wins!  Sorry, Kit.

PM now inbound to Chris...

NP Brian, better the one that works best than one you need to fettle first.

I'll put the one off the Swordfish under a Vulcan or something similar...........  ;) ;D
