510001292€15.99
Article number: 510001292 Product: 1:72 JU-87 B2 STUKA Model Dim.: 15,4 cm Decals for 4 versions. The JU-87 Stuka was the standard ground attack plane and dive bomber of the German Air Force at the beginning of WWII. In spite of its mediocre characteristics it achieved considerable fame through the psychological impact it had on the population and on the enemy forces. Never before has such massive employment of aircraft been experienced. The success of the Stukas during the first phase of the war was due to total air supremacy guaranteed by the Luftwaffe fighters which permitted the Stukas to operate without being disturbed by enemy aircraft. During the battle of Britain the myth of the JU-87 was re-dimensioned due to the supremacy of British fighter aircraft. Nevertheless the Stukas operated until the end of the war from the African theater to Russia.

1:72 Ju-87G-2 Kanonenvogel
510001466€15.99
Le bombardier en piqué JU-87 est sûrement l’un des avions les plus connus et célèbres de la seconde guerre mondiale. Cette caractéristique de l’avion à aile en forme de « mouette » acquit une grande notoriété au début de la guerre et fut considérée, avec les Divisions Panzer de la Wehrmacht, symbole de la Blitzkrieg. Au cours de la guerre, de nouvelles versions avec des profils opérationnels différents ont été introduites. Le Ju-87G a été développé comme une version « antichar » du célèbre Stuka pour combattre un nombre impressionnant de véhicules blindés ennemis sur le front oriental après 1943. Le célèbre pilote de Stuka Hans Ulrich Rudel a suggéré d’appliquer deux canons Flak 18 de 37 mm logés dans des pods sous les ailes pour mieux contrer cette nouvelle menace. Dans cette configuration, le Ju-87G « Kanonenvogel » s'est avéré extrêmement efficace aux mains de pilotes expérimentés. Plus précisément, la version G-2 se caractérisait par une surface alaire accrue dérivée de la version précédente D-5.

Référence article: 510072010 Produit: 1:72 Junker Ju-87B Stuka Le Junkers Ju87 Stuka est un bombardier en piqué biplace conçu par Hermann Pohlmann. Il effectua son premier vol en 1935 et ses débuts au combat en 1936 au sein de la Légion Condor pendant la Guerre Civile Espagnole. Sa voilure en aile de mouette inversée et son train d’atterrissage fixe le rendaient reconnaissable au premier coup d’oeil. Il était doté de plusieurs innovations dont des aérofreins automatiques sous les ailes qui assuraient la remontée à la fin de l’attaque en piqué même si le pilote souffrait d’un voile noir. Il devint un symbole de la « blitzkrieg » (guerre-éclair) pendant les premières phases de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale en fournissant un appui aérien aux Divisions de blindés de la Wehrmacht. La Luftwaffe l’utilisa pendant la Bataille d’Angleterre où il s’avéra lent et vulnérable aux attaques des avions de chasse modernes comme les Hurricane et les Spitfire.

Après des années de développement et une compétition serrée avec Boeing, la North American Aviation remporta le concours en décembre 1957 avec l'entrée en fonctions des 30 premiers avions prévue en 1965. Mais dès 1959 il devint évident que les nouveaux scénarios de combat aérien n'auraient pas permis au B-70 de survivre en milieu hostile et le programme fut réduit de façon draconienne. À la fin ne furent terminés que deux prototypes dont le premier vola en septembre 1964. Les XB-70 furent toutefois capables de dépasser Mach 3 et sont considérés aujourd'hui par beaucoup de spécialistes et de passionnés comme les plus beaux avions jamais construits.

The model F-104 G Recce in 1/72 scale has a length of about 231 mm. Decals for 3 versions. The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter is one of the most famous fighters in the history of aviation and also one with the longest operational life: its history began at the end of the 50s and ended, for some air forces, in mid 2000s. Its unique airframe, with slender fuselage and very little wing surface, made this aircraft ideal as an interceptor. Thanks to the thrust of its General Electric J79-GE-11A afterburning turbojet engine, it could exceed Mach 2,2 with an excellent rate of climb. But it wasn't very maneuverable and difficult to pilot.The F-104G Starfighter was produced on license by several European aviation industries. From the mid 60s, it became the standard interceptor for many NATO countries including Italy, Germany, Holland, Greece, and Turkey. The armament was basically the same found on previous versions, with a 20mm Vulcan cannon and the option to fit under the wings air-to-air missiles, bombs, or additional fuel tanks to increase the airplane's range.With time, reconnaissance duties were added to the traditional interceptor service. The F-104G was therefore fitted with a dedicated "Orpheus" reconnaissance external pod that gave excellent operational results.
