Internet Modeler Eduard 14. Tempest Mk V Limited Edition. Internet Modeler. First Look. Aviation. RSS News Feed. Overview. The Hawker Tempest was a development of the sturdy Typhoon and it aimed to cure some of the problems encountered with that early type. While visually very similar to the Typhoon, the Tempest Mk V was a very different aircraft, with a laminar flow wing, a longer fuselage, and a larger vertical fin. These airframe changes, coupled with a new engine, resulted in a very potent aircraft that was well liked by its pilots. The Tempest Mk V entered operational service in 1. Second Tactical Air Force in Europe. The Kit. Eduards 14. Hawker Tempest kit has been around for quite a few years, but it has been difficult to find in recent years.

Starting with the seat, this has a resin back piece and a resin seat pan, with photoetch seat belts. This completed assembly then fits onto the back end of the resin floor base, which has a separate upper floor piece. This floor assembly provides a very realistic depth that is far better than the kit part. The control stick gets more photoetch details, as do the rudder pedals. A forward bulkhead rounds out this main assembly. Yet, the cockpit is not finished, for there are the sidewalls to deal with. The stock kit has this detail molded onto the fuselage halves, so you will need to remove that detail to make room for the new resin pieces. These have stunning detail molded in place, and it is further accented by the addition of photoetch details. These photoetch details include all the knobs and controls for the throttle and flaps, as well as trim wheels. The completed sidewalls then mesh up with the completed main tub, trapping the combination resinphotoetch instrument panel in between. When all of this is finished, you will have an incredible cockpit that will be a shame to hide in the fuselage. Turning to the fuselage, there is more photoetch for the interior bits there as well. There is a photoetch insert for the tail wheel well, and the chin scoop gets a photoetch grill face. Add the cockpit tub and the exhaust stacks and the fuselage can go together. The wings get some additional photoetch treatment in the separate main wheel wells, while the one piece lower wing and separate uppers ensure proper dihedral alignment. With that done, the wing mates up to the fuselage and with the addition of the stabilizers, this kit is on the home stretch. The finer details are upgraded with photoetch as well. For the main landing gear, the main large door has a separate interior face in photoetch, while the small outer doors are folded up entirely from photoetch. There are photoetch details for the wheel hubs, as well as actuator arms for both the struts and the doors. The tail wheel gets photoetch doors as well. Recombine Split Files. Still on the underside, the drop tank gets a photoetch sheath around the pylon. Flipping the plane over, there is a photoetch canopy rail and a resinphotoetch gunsight. With those in place, the canopy can go on, and attention turns to painting. The Tempest V had little variation in camouflage colors, and all of the options in this kit are finished in the same Dark Green, Ocean Gray, and Medium Sea Gray, with Yellow leading edges of the wing. The first two decal options cover two aircraft flown by Pierre Clostermann of No 3 Squadron. The first is SN2. JF E fuselage codes, and Clostermanns scoreboard on the right side. It also has the name Le Grande Charles written under the cockpit. The second of Clostermanns machines is NV7. JF E codes, and the No 3 Squadron emblem on the fin tip. On the right side is Clostermanns scoreboard, while the nose has a Cross of Lorraine. Next up is Squadron Leader Cornelius Sheddans SN1. No 4. 86 Squadron. It has a black spinner, SA M codes, and a scoreboard and pennant flag on the right side under the windscreen. Flight Officer B F Millers EJ5. Sky spinner and R SD fuselage codes. Turning the page, we have Wing Commander Evan Mackies SN2. EDM, from No 1. 22 Wing. This plane has a yellow spinner, the squadron emblem on the fin tip, and Mackies scoreboard on the right fuselage side. For those who like stripes, the last two options are catered to you. The first striped Tempest is Wing Commander Roland Beamonts JN7. Diablo 2 Lord Of Destruction 1.07'>Diablo 2 Lord Of Destruction 1.07. R B, of No 1. 50 Wing. It features a yellow spinner, a pennant flag on both sides, and four black and three white stripes on the lower wing only. This one dates from early 1. The second striped option is actually the same plane and same pilot, but this time with the standard three white, two black invasion stripes on the wings and fuselage. Conclusion. This is a welcome update to the Eduard Tempest kit, and a timely release for those who were having difficulty finding the original Tempest release. With the addition of the resin and photoetch, coupled with the impressive decal sheet, this is a model that will need no aftermarket accessories to build up into an award winner. My thanks to Eduard for the review sample.
