Corgi 1/72 TSR 2 XR219 The Only Prototype to Fly Ltd Edition (AA38601)

This die-cast ready made and superbly finished model of XR219, the only aircraft flown, is presented in the only authentic finish, the nuclear attack era anti-flash white. BAC TSR-2 XR219 Flying Prototype 1964 Wingspan 156mm

The TSR-2 project was a response to the RAF requirement for a strike aircraft at the height of the cold war. The project was complex and expensive but produced a very promising aircraft. Sadly the government baulked at the rising costs and only one prototype ever flew. Two complete aircraft survive in museum collections, representing the pinnacle of British fast jet development.
