Airfix Mission Control: The Stock has Landed!
SLS Artemis Touches Down!
Decades ago, humanity looked to the stars and dared to go further than ever before. The mighty Saturn V thundered into the skies, carrying the Apollo missions on their journey to the Moon. Today, a new era of exploration begins with NASA’s Artemis SLS, the most powerful rocket ever built, designed to return humankind to lunar soil and beyond.
The new mould SLS Artemis is here for it's maiden launch, ready and equipped with all the necessary glue, acrylic paint and brushes to complete the kit. These are not just kits. They are milestones of human achievement, captured in Airfix detail for builders, dreamers, and collectors who still look up at the night sky and imagine what’s next.
Saturn V Gift Set Now In Stock
This 1:144 scale model kit is a wonderful replica of the first rocket to land on the moon, with 79 parts and, of course, only one possible scheme option. If there’s one machine which underlines man’s mastery of technological innovation and ability to overcome insurmountable challenges, then it's the Saturn V rocket series.
It was the largest and most powerful flying machine the world had ever seen when it made its first test launch in November 1967. A super heavy-lift launch vehicle developed by NASA in support of their Apollo program and America’s desire to place human beings on the moon in the 1960s and 70s, everything about the Saturn V was incredible, from the immense power of its launch sequence to the graceful way it pierced Earth’s atmosphere and onwards into space. The Saturn V stands tall as one of the great engineering achievements of the 20th century.
