The Supermarine Walrus MkII was a very dependable aircraft, being called out in any weather, day or night to serve on air/sea rescue duties. The Walrus frequently alighted in enemy waters to pick up ditched Allied airmen from dinghies, frequently having to put down in minefields and other treacherous waters where rescue launches would not venture.

The Airfix A02002 1:72 scale model kit is easy to assemble consisting of just 48 pieces. First editions of this kit date back to 1962 and are now quite rare indeed. Reintroduced by Airfix in 2010 as kit no. A02002.
