The aircraft entered service with the Spanish Air Force (Ejército del Aire) between 1954–1965 during the Cold War era. The most important modification involved the use of a British Rolls-Royce Merlin 500-45 engine, which altered the fuselage profile and gave the aircraft its characteristic \"cheek\" air intakes. The HA-1112 Buchon took part in numerous military maneuvers and was also used for police support and training missions in Spain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe \"Movie Star\" model refers to this machine's famous role as a \"Messerschmitt\" in cult war films, such as \"Battle of Britain\" (1969), where the Buchons played the part of German Luftwaffe fighters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eFeatures of the Special Hobby 72311 model\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/72 (model length approx. 12.4 cm when assembled)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eUser country of the original: Spain\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eService period: Cold War (years 1954–1965)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAccurately reproduced details of the fuselage, cockpit, landing gear, and the unique air intake characteristic of the Merlin engine\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\"Movie Star\" version – special decals allow you to recreate the film replicas used on screen\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNo metal or resin extras are included in the basic kit (they can be purchased separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWho is this model for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eWe recommend Special Hobby 72311 HA-1112 M-1L Buchon to aviation collectors, modelers interested in the Cold War era, and fans of movie replicas.
