LF for WWII aerial launched torpedoes

rickshaw · January 01, 2024, 10:24:23 PM

As the tin lid says, I am looking for for WWII aerial launched torpedoes, either as separate items or as part of a torpedo bomber kit, preferably with two or more torpedoes. I am quite willing to pay for kit and for the postage of either the kit or models to downunder. Any takers?

I might have one or two, let me check the stash tomorrow and I'll get back to you by Friday-ish.

1/72, yes?

Shouldn't be too much to get them across the ditch. He says...

Italeri's He 111 comes with a pair of torpedoes as standard. German, obviously.

All of the new tool Airfix Beaufighters have torpedoes. I'd advise a pair of the Firedog boxing as there's a greater variety of lethality.

I'll bet that a lot of us are looking for the same thing, there are so many whiff ideas for torpedo aircraft. Could probably use a few myself.

Wardukw has come through, promising me multiple torpedoes.
