- HISTORY ASPECTS:
- The Westland Lysander was a British army cooperation and liaison aircraft that was used during World War II. It was designed and built by the Westland Aircraft company, and was primarily used by the Royal Air Force (RAF) for reconnaissance, observation, and light transport of troops and supplies. The Lysander MK III variant was an improved version of the earlier Lysander models and was known for its short take-off and landing capabilities and its ruggedness.
- The Lysander MK III R9125, piloted by 225 Squadron, RAF was deployed in the European theater during World War II, particularly in the Normandy invasion and in the battles that followed. The aircraft was used primarily for reconnaissance and observation, and was known for its ability to operate from small and unprepared airfields, as well as its ability to land and take off in small clearings. The Lysander was considered to be one of the best reconnaissance aircraft used by the RAF during the war and was highly valued by its pilots.
- The Lysander was used extensively in the European theater, where it played a key role in the Normandy invasion and the final push to Berlin. It was also used in the Mediterranean theater, where it was used to support ground troops and conduct reconnaissance missions. Lysander was also used for a special mission, for the Special Operations Executive (SOE) to retrieve and insert agents and supplies behind enemy lines, particularly in occupied Europe.
- The Westland Lysander MK III R9125, 225 Squadron, RAF 1:72 Scale Model Aircraft by Oxford Diecast is a highly detailed and accurate replica of the actual aircraft. It is made of die-cast metal and plastic and is perfect for collectors and aviation enthusiasts. It is a great addition to any collection and is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of World War II aviation and the Royal Air Force.
