Messerschmitt Me-262A-1a/U4 New Parts conversion. Kit will include decals to depict aircraft when captured by US forces at the end of WWII, plus 2x options to show aircraft in US markings whilst later being evaluated.
One of Germany's "wonder weapons" that luckily did not enter service before the war's end, the Messerschmitt Me262A-1a/U4 mounted a fearsome 50mm Rheinmetall-Mauser Mk214 A cannon in its nose, designed to bring down an Allied bomber with a single shot! Only two aircraft are known to have been made and our latest "New Parts" conversion based on our 2016 New Tool depicts this early jet-age fighter in amazing detail. Depicting WkNr. 170083, this aircraft fell into US hands as Messerschmitt's Lechfeld, Germany testing facility was overrun in late-April 1945. Shortly thereafter it was over-painted with American markings and was given two names in the form of nose art before the aircraft crashed and was destroyed when attempts were made to transport it back to America for further testing and evaluation.
As such, we've included decals to enable the builder to complete one of three possible finishes for this ill-fated airframe. The model can be completed either as the standard aircraft as captured at Lechfeld Air Base, as the later re-named "Wilma Jeanne" with nose art and American "Star & Bar" markings covering the German crosses (as shown on the box art), also at Lechfeld, and the revision of name to "Happy Hunter II" with re-painted nose section whilst based at Melun-Villaroche, France.
The cannon alone will make for a very striking and distinctive display piece, but the option of three quite different marking options makes the builder's choice just that more interesting!
