Heinkel He-177A-3 'Grief' The Heinkel He 177 Greif was the only German four-engine bomber deployed in larger numbers during World War II. Its operational use was not entirely successful, but the Heinkel He 177 is still an iconic aircraft. Its concept is unique. In each wing, two engines were placed side by side with a drive to a common gearbox. This turned a four-bladed propeller. The bomber thus looked like having only a pair of engines.
We have already offered the Heinkel He 177 kit earlier. Now we are returning it to the offer with redesigned small parts. These are now made from metal moulds, originally the kit was all short-run. The decals offer markings for two Luftwaffe machines, first one of which took part in the Operation Steinbock, Luftwaffe's bombing offensive against Great Britain. The operation was launched in the spring of 1944 and caused more losses than gains for which the British mockingly called the offensive Baby Blitz. The other scheme option of the kit set features a machine with yellow trim and in two differing forms. It is a mostly new kit, with just a couple of the original pieces, the rest is brand new.
- the only 1/48 model kit portraying the He 177 aeroplane
- new metal tooling parts accompanying the original ones
- photo etches, 3D printed parts and resin cast parts included in the box
- also available for this kit are more resin detail parts and pre-cut set of masks
