In 2000, [[EON Digital Entertainment]] released ''[[Airfix Dogfighter]]'' for [[Microsoft Windows]]. The game featured computer representation of Airfix's Second World War-era model aircraft with a total of over 15 playable aircraft, including the German [[Messerschmitt Me 163]] Komet, and the American [[Grumman F6F Hellcat]]. The game featured 20 missions, allowing players to play 10 missions as both the Axis and Allies. Players fought their way through the game's 1950s-era house, destroying enemy planes while trying to collect healing glue packets, new model kits, weapons schematics, and paint to customise their aircraft for online battles. Pilots would battle enemy model aircraft as well as U-boats, warships, tanks, flak guns, airships, and fortresses. Players could also design their own fighting emblem, call sign, and even their own battle maps based on the missions in the game. The whole game was an advertising venture, as the paints are Humbrol and the kit upgrades show actual pictures of Airfix packages.
