RODEN 616 NIEUPORT 28c.1 (FRENCH BUILT WWI BIPLANE FIGHTER) 1/32 SCALE
DESCRIPTION:
Although built by the French, the Nieuport 28C-1 was the first aircraft to see service with an American fighter squadron. Sometimes described as the most elegant airplane of World War I, the N28C-1 was the last in a series of lightweight fighters produced by Nieuport.
Interestingly, the N28C-1 was never used by the French because they preferred the SPAD; however, they sold the aircraft to the Americans who had no fighter airplanes of their own. In March 1918, the American Expeditionary Force (AEF) purchased 297 of these French-built fighters, each armed with two Vickers machine guns and powered by a 160 hp rotary engine.
