1/32 Me 262 A-1a
Trumpeter 1/32 Me 262 A-1a is a plastic kit of the German Schwalbe jet fighter. The kit contains 355 parts plus a photo-etched fret. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The Messerschmitt Me 262 made history as the first jet fighter to enter operational service. It was powered by two Jumo 004 turbojets slung under the wings and armed with four 30 mm MK 108 cannon in the nose. The A-1a Schwalbe was the basic fighter version, flown in the final months of the war by units including JG 7.
According to the manufacturer, the Trumpeter kit in 1/32 scale has 355 parts on nine sprues, a photo-etched fret and a film for the instrument panel. The finished model is 331.5 mm long with a 396 mm wingspan. The manufacturer lists the markings of “Red 4” of 10./JG 7, flown by Franz Schall.
The large scale gives plenty of room for cockpit work and for carefully graded mottled camouflage of late-war Luftwaffe aircraft. The model suits a collection of early jets as well as a display of late-war hardware. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
