Fairey Ultra Light helicopter Scale 1:72 AMP 72002 Plastic Model Helicopter Kit

Fairey Ultra Light experimental helicopter plastic model kit in 1:72 scale represents a British light helicopter concept developed during the early Cold War period.

The Fairey Ultra Light Helicopter was designed as a compact, single-seat experimental rotorcraft intended to explore lightweight construction and simplified helicopter operation. It featured an extremely minimal airframe and was powered by a tip-jet rotor system, reflecting post-war British research into alternative helicopter propulsion methods.

Fairey Ultra Light – British Experimental Helicopter

Tested in the late 1940s and early 1950s, the Fairey Ultra Light did not enter production but contributed to the understanding of light helicopter design and tip-jet technology. The project forms part of the broader Early Cold War experimentation phase, when many nations investigated unconventional rotary-wing solutions.

This plastic model kit by AMP accurately depicts the Fairey Ultra Light helicopter in its experimental configuration. The model belongs to the Helicopter Model Kits category and is produced in 1:72 scale, a standard scale for historic and prototype helicopter collections.
