Description

This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.

The He112 was designed to the same German specification that led to the Bf109. In fact, the two were rivals for the contract to be the Luftwaffe's next fighter. In the event, the 109 prototypes beat the 112 prototypes, but Heinkel continued to develop the 112. The resulting He112B was easily on par with the early 109s, however except for a few aircraft impressed into service in the late-30s the type saw little German service. Instead, it was exported to neighboring countries where it was snatched up as the various air forces tried to get better equipment with which to replace their old biplanes. This kit features fine recessed panel lines and a high level of detail for such a small kit. A photoetched fret of parts is included for the instrument panel, belts, radiator and gear doors. A full resin engine and cowl machine guns are also included, as well as a vacuform canopy. Two styles of cowl side panels are included, pay attention to the build instructions for the variant you wish to build. Decals are for 6 aircraft: He112B-1 "2" of the Heinkel Factory Protection Unit; 5 66 of 1 Escuadrilla, Grupo 27 Spanish Air Force; 5 65 of the same unit, shot down 3 March 1943 by a USAAF P-38; 14+E11 of the Propaganda Staffel, German Luftwaffe 1939; 5 52 of the Spanish Air Force 1939 and 8 2 flown by Hauptman Harro Harder of the Legion Kondor 1937-38. While RS Models are "short-run" kits, it is honestly hard to believe that looking at the parts. RS Models kits are easily on par with the major makers, and the added detail provided by the photoetched pieces will make them really stand out, even to the "flashlight brigade".
