Corgi Aviation Archive Collector Series AA36704 Ju 88A Diecast Model Luftwaffe KG 54, Rzym, Wlochy, 1943 Limited Edition 1:72 Scale     Length     Width Junkers Ju 88A     7.75"     11" Probably no other aircraft in history has been developed in so many forms for so many purposes — except, perhaps, for the De Havilland Mosquito. Flown long before WWII as a civil prototype, after a frantic design process led by two temporarily hired Americans well-versed in modern stressed skin construction, the first Ju 88s were transformed into the heavier, slower and more capacious A-1 bombers, which were just entering service as WWII began. The formidable bomb load and generally good performance were offset by inadequate defensive armament. In the A-4, the span was increased, the bomb load and gun power were substantially augmented and a basis was laid for diverse further development. Corgi Aviation Archive Collector Series The Corgi "Aviation Archive" presents highly-detailed, ready-made diecast models of military and civilian aircraft. The vast Aviation Archive range has become the standard by which all other diecast airplane ranges are judged. Each Corgi model is based on a specific aircraft from an important historical or modern era of flight, and has been authentically detailed from original documents and archival library material. Famous airplanes and aviators from both military and commercial airline aviation are all honored. Corgi "Aviation Archive" diecast airplanes feature: Diecast metal construction with some plastic components. Realistic panel lines, antennas, access panels and surface details.
