Airfix - Short Stirling BI/III - 1:72 (A07002)
The Stirling was the first of the RAF’s four engined bombers to go into
service during WWII. Its function was that of bomber, mine layer, supply
dropping, transport and glider tug. The Stirling suffered from several
design limitations which severely affected its performance and load-carrying
capability. As a consequence, its service with Bomber Command was marred by
heavy losses when used on operations alongside the higher-flying Halifaxes
and Lancasters.
