Airfix: 1:48 Boulton Paul Defiant Mk.1
As the least effective of the RAF's interceptor fighters at the start of the
Battle of Britain, it is interesting to note that the Boulton Paul Defiant
actually entered service much later than either the Spitfire or Hurricane, but
was quickly relegated to nightfighter operations when it became obvious the
extra weight of the power operated turret made the aircraft a relatively easy
target for Luftwaffe fighters.
