Roden Aircraft 1/32 Se5a WWI RAF Fighter w/Hispano Suiza Engine Kit
The most famous aces of the Royal Flying Corps Edward 'Mick' Mannock, Billy Bishop, Roderick Dallas, James McCudden, Andrew Beauchamp-Proctor and others - flew the S.E.5a. It was more than just an airplane in their hands: it was a highly dangerous lethal weapon, which time after time proved the inevitability of allied victory in the sky.
After the end of the war a very small number went to the USA and Australia. Some S.E.5a's appeared by chance even in Russia. However, the principal fame of this machine is connected with its heroic fights in the sky of the Western Front.
