I dream that one day Airfix back-dates this kit to give the WWII fans a really nice F version. We’ve been for a looooong time….come on Airfix!

It would be nice for some manufacturer to offer a “E” version with the field modified “cheek” guns in the nose. Airfix … are you listening? So easy just to make that as an optional part. I think a lot of modelers would be interested in that.
