This P-40N or Curtiss Kittyhawk Mark IV will be an RAAF model from 1945. I have started the body and so far it is fitting together well. The cockpit is very basic as you would expect from a Hasegawa model of this age.

Finally completed. The canopy was a difficult fit (I should have dry fitted it first) Underside Vallejo Model Air Neutral Grey.
