About product

Airfix 1:72 Messerschmitt Me-262A-1a/2a

A plastic kit of the German jet aircraft Messerschmitt Me 262 in 1:72 scale from Airfix. It is a modern injection-molded kit from a newer mold with a finely engraved surface and good detail. The box allows two versions to be built - the pure fighter Me 262A-1a and the fighter-bomber Me 262A-2a Sturmvogel - and it offers decal markings for the matching machines.

The real subject

The Messerschmitt Me 262 was the first jet fighter in the world to be mass-produced and committed to combat, entering service in 1944. Its pair of jet engines gave it a speed well beyond that of Allied piston fighters. The A-1a version served as a fighter, while the A-2a Sturmvogel version was adapted to carry bombs as a fighter-bomber.

Building and painting tips

Glue the model with thin plastic cement and sand the joints down. A primer coat and an airbrush suit the period German camouflage schemes with their characteristic mottling. The engraved panel lines come out well once a thin wash is applied.

Who the model is for

  • Anyone interested in Second World War jet aviation
  • Builders working in the popular 1:72 scale
  • Modelers who want the choice between the fighter and the bomber version

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
