Have a look at the airfix range, I'm sure from many many years ago I built a swordfish.

F-Toys (Japanese firm I think) do a 1/144th Swordfish but I don't know of a UK distributer at the moment.

Airfix recently upgraded their Swordfish kit.  It's now a superb kit including folding wing option, detailed interior and a torpedo handling trolly.  The bad news, they only make it in 1/72nd scale.

Thanks for all the ideas first found one on Amazon USA but they are not allowed to post to UK not even to Amazon UK for some reason but found one on F toys on E bay in Hong Kong could have had either wings open or folded so I am just waiting for the post man once again thanks to all who replied and A Happy Christmas and a good New Year to all on Mayhem
