Used by the Royal Flying Corps and later the Royal Air Force, it served in roles ranging from fighter and reconnaissance to bomber missions. 11 Squadron, formed in 1915, initially operated the Royal Aircraft Factory BE2c before transitioning to the Bristol F2B in 1917, employing it across various missions. Beyond World War I, the Bristol F2B also saw service in the Middle East during the Arab Revolt, in Russia during the Civil War, and with several other nations including France, Belgium, and Australia. The 1:72 scale model of the Bristol F2B Fighter 11 Squadron replicates this iconic aircraft with authentic markings, colors, and detailing that highlight its history and significance.
