Fairmile D-class MGB/MTB
The Fairmile company produced a mass production vessel, which had good seagoing qualities and was used also for mine laying. The Fairmile B followed this, 398 being built in the UK, and 180 more in the Commonwealth, an impressive total. They showed their suitability by one flotilla even crossing the Atlantic to Trinidad via Iceland!
Their most famous boat was probably the Fairmile D or ‘Dog’ boat, a dual MTB/MGB, possibly the best-armed vessel size for its size in the world. From February 1942, 229 were built and served with distinction in all areas of conflict.
Contains:
- 2 x Fairmile D MGB/MTB (resin and metal)
- Ship Cards

Models supplied unassembled and unpainted
