In 1943, Royal Canadian Air Force 405 Squadron, known as the Vancouver Squadron, operated the Bristol Beaufighter Mk VIF in the night fighter role with RAF Bomber Command. Based in the United Kingdom, the squadron used the Beaufighter to intercept German bombers and intruders during night operations. Equipped with airborne radar and heavy cannon armament, the aircraft was effective in close range engagements in darkness. 405 Squadron crews flew defensive patrols and offensive intruder missions over occupied Europe, contributing to the night air defense effort before transitioning to heavy bombers later in the war.

Hobby Master's 1:72 scale Bristol Beaufighter is constructed almost entirely from diecast metal with a large thick solid metal wing and stubby nose. The fuselage features four 20mm cannon ports with vents for spent shell casings, simulated fabric stretched control surfaces and removable canopies that open to reveal pad-printed instrument panels, control yoke and side-mounted equipment. The wing has six gun ports on the leading edge and seamlessly-blended engine nacelles and cooling fins on each cylinder head. Variants in the series include the TF.Mk.X torpedo fighter with removable torpedo, the night fighter Mk.IF with "herringbone" antenna and the all-weather/night attack Mk.VIF with its "thimble-nose" radome.
