The joy of experiencing the ultimate reciprocating fighter, the Ta 152, on a small Scale.
The German Air Force's special high-altitude fighter "Ta 152", which was deployed in small numbers at the end of World War II as a trump card for intercepting enemy bombers "B-17", is finally here in 1/48 Scale. This cutting-edge aircraft, developed with the delicate yet bold design philosophy unique to the German Air Force, has been beautifully reproduced with a long, beautiful wingspan like a glider that creates high turning performance, and a nose and tail that were extended to accommodate the replacement of a liquid-cooled engine, retaining the beautiful exterior shape that captivates all who see it, while using an exquisite Parts configuration that can only be created by the sculptor's sensibility that goes beyond the limits of mold design.
Enjoy this small Scale of the "ultimate reciprocating fighter plane," named after its developer, Dr. Kurt Tank, who pursued high performance by sticking to an orthodox style.
A thorough look at the evolution of aircraft even on a small Scale!
The internal structure of the final evolution of the "Focke-Wulf" series is reproduced in detail in 1/48 Scale. Unlike previous models, it features two additional steel longerons on each side to extend the fuselage and secure space for the magazine of the nose motor cannon.
Even though it's small Scale, this engine is still impressive!
The liquid-cooled inverted V12 engine, "Jumo 213 E," is equipped with not only the distinctive circular radiator at the tip and the detailed auxiliary equipment at the rear, but also a two-stage, three-speed supercharger and the "MK 108" 30mm motor cannon, a nose armament that penetrates the center of the engine.
