1/72 Airfix - Consolidated PBY-5A Catalina (PRE-ORDER)

Expected October 2026

Unquestionably one of the most distinctive aircraft of the Second World War, the Catalina was built to win the vital war at sea and, for a large aeroplane, was a surprisingly agile performer. 

The PBY-5A was perhaps the definitive version of the aircraft, a true amphibian able to operate from both water and traditional airfield sites.

This classic kit is reissued using Airfix’s original moulds, preserving the charm and character of the original release. It features finely moulded parts, updated decals, and the iconic retro-style box art that defines the Vintage Classics series. A great choice for both nostalgic modellers and aviation history enthusiasts.
