The Overseas Command, in turn, included the Air Forces of the Middle East, Palestine, Transjordan, Iraq, Aden, the Mediterranean, India, the Far East, as well as wings in Egypt and Sudan. The hot climate zones required a uniform adapted to the climate, which was light khaki in colour. Also, during combat operations in the desert, pilots and ground staff wore a combination of khaki and the traditional RAF grey and blue. \u003cbr id='\"isPasted\"'\u003e\u003cbr\u003eService in hot climates was difficult: heat, sandstorms, and problems with clean water made living conditions much more difficult. However, even in such difficult conditions, the British pilots performed their service selflessly. In heavy fighter battles in the air and dedicated torpedo attacks at sea, the RAF pilots proved their qualifications as resilient, disciplined and experienced fighters.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"'box-sizing:\" inherit rgb sans sans-serif normal left none initial id='\"isPasted\"' font-weight:=\"\" color:=\"\" font-family:=\"\" font-size:=\"\" font-style:=\"\" font-variant-ligatures:=\"\" font-variant-caps:=\"\" letter-spacing:=\"\" orphans:=\"\" text-align:=\"\" text-indent:=\"\" text-transform:=\"\" widows:=\"\" word-spacing:=\"\" white-space:=\"\" text-decoration-thickness:=\"\" text-decoration-style:=\"\" text-decoration-color:=\"\" background-color:=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style='\"box-sizing:' inherit color: rgb\u003eModel Features\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul style=\"'box-sizing:\" inherit rgb sans sans-serif normal left none initial color:=\"\" font-family:=\"\" font-size:=\"\" font-style:=\"\" font-variant-ligatures:=\"\" font-variant-caps:=\"\" font-weight:=\"\" letter-spacing:=\"\" orphans:=\"\" text-align:=\"\" text-indent:=\"\" text-transform:=\"\" widows:=\"\" word-spacing:=\"\" white-space:=\"\" text-decoration-thickness:=\"\" text-decoration-style:=\"\" text-decoration-color:=\"\" background-color:=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eThe set includes three pilot figures and two RAF ground staff\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eAll five figures with uniforms typical for hot climates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eThe figures have detailed elements of clothing and equipment (helmets, goggles, life jackets)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eThe set can be used to recreate a diorama scene at an RAF airfield during the Second World War\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"'box-sizing:\" inherit rgb sans sans-serif normal left none initial font-weight:=\"\" color:=\"\" font-family:=\"\" font-size:=\"\" font-style:=\"\" font-variant-ligatures:=\"\" font-variant-caps:=\"\" letter-spacing:=\"\" orphans:=\"\" text-align:=\"\" text-indent:=\"\" text-transform:=\"\" widows:=\"\" word-spacing:=\"\" white-space:=\"\" text-decoration-thickness:=\"\" text-decoration-style:=\"\" text-decoration-color:=\"\" background-color:=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style='\"box-sizing:' inherit color: rgb\u003eModel Information\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul style=\"'box-sizing:\" inherit rgb sans sans-serif normal left none initial color:=\"\" font-family:=\"\" font-size:=\"\" font-style:=\"\" font-variant-ligatures:=\"\" font-variant-caps:=\"\" font-weight:=\"\" letter-spacing:=\"\" orphans:=\"\" text-align:=\"\" text-indent:=\"\" text-transform:=\"\" widows:=\"\" word-spacing:=\"\" white-space:=\"\" text-decoration-thickness:=\"\" text-decoration-style:=\"\" text-decoration-color:=\"\" background-color:=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eScale: \u003cstrong style='\"box-sizing:' inherit font-weight:\u003e1:48\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eNumber of Parts:\u003cstrong style='\"box-sizing:' inherit font-weight:\u003e 31\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eIncludes detailed assembly instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eHighly detailed sprues with high accuracy made from quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style='\"box-sizing:' inherit\u003eBox size: \u003cstrong style='\"box-sizing:' inherit font-weight:\u003e247 x 183 x 33 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ICM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55436235473230,"sku":"HCO-ICM48080","price":11.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/1741\/0894\/files\/72432019-76ef-42f6-b18a-b1f7551fda59.jpg?v=1772895988","url":"https:\/\/www.makeitbuildit.co.uk\/products\/icm-raf-pilots-in-tropical-uniforms-1941-1945-5-figures","provider":"Make It Build It","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
