Messerschmitt Me262B-1a Luftwaffe NJG 11, "Red 10", Night Fighter, Dragon Models 1:72 Diecast Model

✈️Me 262B-1a 1:72 scale model✈️
Kurt Welter was an experienced Luftwaffe pilot of WWII. On 4 September 1944 he was transferred to a special unit wholly dedicated to intercepting RAF Mosquito twin-engine bombers by night. He then went on to take command of Sonderkommando Stamp, later re-designated 10./NJG 11, also specializing in fighting Mosquitos. This unit was equipped with Me262 jet fighters, just like the one represented in this latest release. This scale Me262B-1a is in fact a little unique, as it is equipped with nose radar, since most Me262 jets in this unit were not so equipped. It's a great addition to your warbird collection. Development of the world's first jet-powered aircraft actually began as early as 1938 in Germany, culminating in the advanced Me262 fighter. A more unusual version of this famous Messerschmitt was the Me262B-1a, a two-seater trainer version that was necessary to help pilots transform from propeller-driven to jet-powered aircraft. Fifteen of these two-seaters were built in the autumn of 1944, with more being subsequently manufactured as night fighter versions equipped with radar.

Today's example is from Dragon Wings. It is 1:72nd scale and made of diecast with plastic accessories. The model is of the Messerschmitt Me 262B-1a from Luftwaffe 10./NJG 11, "Red 10", Germany, 1945, Nightfighter w/Radar
