The TG23C scale model crew figure is a highly detailed representation of an RAF Crash Rescue RTTL (Rescue & Target Towing Launch) boat crew member, designed to bring historical accuracy and realism to your radio-controlled model boats and dioramas.
What is an RTTL Boat?
The Rescue & Target Towing Launch (RTTL) was a fast-response boat used by the Royal Air Force (RAF) Marine Branch for air-sea rescue missions from the 1950s through the 1980s. These vessels were critical in retrieving downed aircrew from the sea and providing target towing services for RAF training exercises. Built for speed and maneuverability, RTTLs featured powerful engines and a well-trained crew, ensuring rapid response times in dangerous rescue operations.
