A very nice-looking, all-new tool of the XP-75 Eagle, apparently the first time this aircraft has been available in an injected kit. The Eagle was designed to meet a 1942 requirement for a new interceptor for the US Army. The powerplant was a pair of Alison V-12s connected to a common gearbox and mounted in the middle of the fuselage. Parts from several existing types were cobbled together for the prototype, including an SBD aft fuselage, P-40 wings, and Corsair landing gear. The type carried ten .50 caliber machine guns, three in each wing and four clustered around the nose and firing through the contrarotating propeller. In the end, however, the Army decided not to buy the type, and only a few prototypes and five production examples (Valom kit 72010) were built. Markings are for s/n 346950. Includes resin and photo-etched detail parts.
