The Short Stirling was the first four-engine British heavy bomber of the Second World War. The design featured a high wing, four engines and a cockpit raised above the fuselage. The airframe was made entirely of metal. Another feature that characterised the bomber was the impressive size of its undercarriage. The first bombers began equipping Royal Air Force Bomber Command squadrons from late 1940. Operational status was reached in January 1941, and the first war mission was flown in February 1941 against a logistics installation in Rotterdam. Stirling Mk. I was able to carry a substantial offensive load of over 6,000 kg of bombs and was armed with eight 7.7 mm machine guns for defence. The direct successor to the Mk.I version was the Mk.III, fitted with new and improved Bristol Hercules XVI engines and enhanced defensive armament.
The finished model measures 36.9cm
