Models * Italeri 1/72 FW-189 A-1 UHU - ITA 01239 - Models
This unusual twin-engined aircraft - with its double tailfin, extensive wingspan and bubble-like glass cockpit, ideal for reconnaissance missions and optimum use of on-board photographic equipment - was built by Germany as a tactical reconnaissance aircraft to replace the old Hs-126, built in the 30s. Thanks to robust cell construction the FW-189 was difficult to shoot down: numerous cases of the aircraft making it back to base despite extensive damage were recorded. Model length 6.6 inches. Glue and paint are required for assembly, and are sold separately.
