Gloster Gladiator Aircraft Models

Discover our selection of diecast models of the Gloster Gladiator - Authentically Detailed, Historically Iconic, and Collectible Airplane Models.

The Gloster Gladiator was the last British biplane fighter and the first with an enclosed cockpit. It served primarily with the Royal Air Force (RAF) and the Fleet Air Arm just before World War II. Introduced in the mid-1930s, the Gladiator was known for its maneuverability and speed, holding its own in the early stages of the war.

Key variants include the Gladiator Mk I (initial production version), Gladiator Mk II (improved version with a more powerful engine), and the Sea Gladiator (naval version). The Gladiator saw action in various theaters of World War II, including the defense of Malta and the early stages of the North African campaign. Its role as both a frontline and a transitional fighter between biplane and monoplane designs makes it a subject of great interest for aviation enthusiasts and model collectors, especially those interested in the interwar and early WWII periods.
