Northrop XP-61 E Experimental Escort Fighter Model Kit Aircraft Scale 1:72 A&A Models AAM7235

Northrop XP-61E aircraft model kit in 1:72 scale represents an experimental development of the P-61 Black Widow program, created during the final stages of World War II.

The XP-61E was a single-seat experimental fighter prototype derived from the P-61 night fighter. It featured a revised fuselage layout with a simplified cockpit and reduced crew, intended to improve aerodynamic performance and evaluate the aircraft’s potential as a high-speed interceptor.

Northrop XP-61E – Experimental Fighter Prototype

Although sometimes described as a proposed long-range escort concept, the XP-61E remained an experimental aircraft and did not enter operational service. The project provided valuable data for post-war aircraft development and influenced later reconnaissance and interceptor variants derived from the P-61 platform.

This plastic model kit by A&A Models accurately captures the unique configuration of the XP-61E prototype, making it a notable subject for builders interested in experimental World War II aircraft and alternative development paths of American fighters.

The model is part of the Aircraft Model Kits range and is produced in 1:72 scale, suitable for WWII and experimental aircraft collections.
