1/32 Gloster Meteor F.4

The 1/32 scale Gloster Meteor F.4 by HK Models depicts an improved version of the first British jet fighter, which became a symbol of the RAF's technological advancement after WWII. The Meteor F.4 was a direct successor to the Meteor F.3 and brought significant improvements in performance, handling and structural strength.

The F.4 version was equipped with more powerful Rolls-Royce Derwent 5 engines, which allowed for higher speeds and better climb performance. Reinforced wing and fuselage construction provided improved durability, while a redesigned cabin gave pilots better visibility. The aircraft was armed with four 20mm Hispano Mk.V guns, giving it powerful firepower against enemy aircraft.

The Meteor F.4 was widely exported to Allied countries and became part of the air forces of Belgium, the Netherlands, Argentina, Israel and other countries. It was used as a fighter and trainer aircraft during the Cold War, with some examples serving until the early 1960s.
