1:144 Voisin 5
This is a paintable 1:144 scale model of a Voisin 5. Since many painters choose their own mounting system, no peg is included on the plane. Pegs can be purchased separately in the Accessories section of this catalog.
While the Voisin 3 had proved a successful design, it could not easily mount the new 150hp Salmson P9 radial engine. The Voisin 5 was created in response, with a more streamlined central nacelle, wider-chord wings, and a stronger undercarriage. Its factory designation was the "LAS" ("LBS" with the cannon, aka the "Voisin 5Ca"). Roughly 400 Voisin 5s were built, and they were used by many escadrilles starting in early 1915.
