White Knight & SS1 Scale 1:72 Amodel AMO72201 Plastic Airplane Model Kit

White Knight & SpaceShipOne (SS1) aircraft model kit in 1:72 scale represents a historic experimental aviation and spaceflight system developed in the early 2000s.

The White Knight carrier aircraft and the SpaceShipOne (SS1) spaceplane were designed as part of a private aerospace project aimed at achieving suborbital spaceflight. In 2004, SpaceShipOne became the first privately funded crewed spacecraft to reach space, launched from the White Knight mothership.

White Knight & SpaceShipOne – Experimental Private Spaceflight System

The White Knight served as a high-altitude launch platform, while SpaceShipOne completed powered suborbital flights using a hybrid external stores engine. Together, they marked a major milestone in the development of commercial and experimental spaceflight.

This plastic model kit by Amodel accurately depicts both aircraft included in the historic White Knight & SS1 system and is suitable for modern aviation, experimental aircraft, and spaceflight collections.

The model belongs to the Aircraft Model Kits category and is produced in 1:72 scale, allowing consistent display with other experimental aircraft models.
