<description>Aero A-12 &#039;the First of the Family&#039; USUALLY £19.80. TEMPORARILY SAVE 1/3RD!!! The Aero A-12 was developed by Ing.HusnÃ­k, the chief designer at the Aero factory in 1923 and was introduced to the Czechoslovak Air Force a year later. And it was just the same year that the A-12 did very well during the 2nd Speed Race for the President of the Republic Trophy. Three of the A-12s set world records in the race, the first ones to be achieved by Czechoslovac crew.
 The record-holding machines from this race as well as standard military airframes are offered now in this model kit set that contains two styrene sprues, one with clear parts, resin cast parts and etches. The decal sheet has markings for race machines with large numbers and good luck charms and markings for standard units machines.. Price:&amp;pound;11.00</description>

<description>Junkers Ju-87D-5/N &#039;Night Attack &#039;Stuka&#039; USUALLY £19.80. TEMPORARILY SAVE 1/3RD!!! High quality Academy Junkers Ju-87G-2 styrene parts are now joined by our own designed and made styrene conversion parts, etches and resin parts, all of which gives you the very welcomed opportunity to turn the original Academy kit into the D-5/N/D-8 varieties. And at the same time, those new styrene parts also correct the very few mistakes which can be found in the kit. This version, which was effectively the very last bomber version of the Stuka, was first put into the service in 1943 and remained in use well until the end of the war, flying not only with the Luftwaffe, but with other Axis forces, too. And as the Allies enjoyed their air superiority in those latter war years, the Stukas were maainly operated at night both in the ground attack and bomber roles. These operations did not require dive brakes and these were usually removed, and a pair of exhaust dampers was also fitted. 
 The instruction sheet and decals included in this limited edition kit offer four Luftwaffe schemes, all of which sported the mentioned night type of exhausts &quot; made from resin, and in fact you can chose from two styles of these night types of exhausts.

- attractive version
- interestiong decals including stencils
- limited edition only (Special Hobby sold out November 2025). Price:&amp;pound;11.00</description>

<description>Aero C-3B &#039;Czechoslovak Bomber-Trainer&#039; WAS £49.50. TEMPORARILY SAVE 1/3RD!!! T The Siebel Si 204A and Si 204D were the transport training versions of the twin-engined aircraft designed and built for the Lufthansa and, mainly, for the Luftwaffe. A bomber trainer version was also built during the war which was capable of taking night bombing missions, too. Known as the Si 204E, two prototype machines were built and a small batch designated Si 204E-0. These machines were used for nocturnal bombing missions, among other also in Slovakia to suppress the Slovak national uprising. After the war, the production of the type went on in Czechoslovakia, where the type got the Aero C-3B military designation, and they meant much more for the fledgling air force than they did for Germans. At first, they were meant to assist the training of the air crews. The February 1948 pro-communist coup brought about the virtual impossibility of acquiring new, state of the art aircraft from the West as well as it meant the end of spare parts supplies for the Mosquito and other aircraft already in Czech service. The communist regime also began to build an oversized army and air force in truly megalomaniac fashion common for other communist block countries, too. What they were not able to do, however, was to produce modern aircraft, nor was the Soviet Union able to deliver such equipment to them. So the outdated Siebels were to stay in service as a mainstay of the bomber force well until 1955 when Soviet jet bombers eventually arrived. 
 The model kit consists of as many as nine grey styrene sprues, two clear plastic sprues and a sheet of decals covering three Czechoslovak Air Force machines.

- a very attractive version
- both the interior and exterior offer nice levels of detail
- sets and figures for the model are also available, separately. Price:&amp;pound;27.49</description>
