Inside the Armour - Vickers K 10 set 3d-printed a set of ten 1/72 vickers K guns commonly used on British aircraft. Hugely improved detail over kit items, easy to remove from the supports, and supplied in a pretectived printed box. As used on Raf Fairey Battle and Handle-Page Hampden. In gun turrets, such as the dorsal turret in the Bristol Blenheim, the nose turret in the Armstrong Whitworth Whitley and the rear of the cockpit in the Fairey Battle. It was the standard Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm 'Telegraphist Air Gunner' machine gun, on British built carrier Torpedo Strike Reconnaissance aircraft the Fairey Swordfish, the Fairey Albacore and the Fairey Barracuda. As supplies of air-cooled .303 in 7.7 mm Browning machine guns increased the Vickers G.O. was phased out of use with the RAF. These machine guns were then reallocated from Raf stocks to units of the British and Commonwealth armies. The gun continued in service with the Fleet Air Arm and its last recorded use by the navy was by 812 Squadron Rnas Barracudas in anti piracy patrols off Hong Kong in October 1945.
