This model is built very near to scale, includes very detailed exterior, highly detailed rotary engine, and a very detailed cockpit and very high polygon count. It is fully textured. This 3d model fighter has many animateable features such as the propeller and rotary engine rotate together, wheels, ailerons, elevators and rudder. The controls in the cockpit can also be animated. The instrument panel is modeled and accurate for the aircraft. The model comes in 11 different formats. Note that this model includes our Gnome 80HP Rotary engine model completely incorporated so you get the extreme detail of that model too. The Sopwith Pup was a British single seat single engine fighter produced by Sopwith during WWI that was used extensively in service from 1916. The Pup was outclassed by German fighter development in 1917, but some Pups continued to serve until the end of the war. It was produced from 1916 in great numbers until 1918. A total of 1770 Sopwith Pups were built by 4 companies during World War I and those surviving units continued to serve for some time after the war. Currently the Pups are a very prized museum piece and only home built replicas remain flying.
