Airfix 1/48 Gloster Javelin FAW 9/9R A12007The Gloster Javelin was developed in the 1950s as a two seat, all weather interceptor. Serving with the RAF during the late 1950s and much of the 1960s, the Javelin was the last aircraft to bear the Gloster name. A distinctive fighter, the Javelin was equipped with a broad delta wing and a large finned T Tail. Its cannons were placed in the wing, harking back to an earlier era of fighter development, but its missile armament was cutting edge.
