Hastily summoned from North Africa to reinforce StG 2 in Bulgaria immediately prior to the invasion of Yugoslavia and Greece, I./StG 1 nevertheless found time to apply the yellow theater markings specified for Operation Marita (Balkans invasion) by the Luftwaffe high command. This machine is unusual in having the entire tail unit painted yellow - this was presumably done because the Ju-87 was the mount of a formation leader. Note the Gruppe emblem on the cowling - a stylized depiction of "Hans Huckebein", who was a cartoon raven popular in the 19th century. The Corgi "Legends" range presents affordable, ready-made diecast models of military and civilian aircraft. Corgi "Legends" diecast airplanes feature: - Diecast metal construction with some plastic components.
- Realistic panel lines, antennas, access panels and surface details.
- Pad printed markings and placards that won't fade or peel like decals.
- Permanently extended landing gear with rotating wheels.
- Presention stand to display the aircraft "in flight".
- Detailed pilot and crew member figures.
