Hobby Master 1:72 Air Power Series HA1809
Messerschmitt Bf 110G Diecast Model
Luftwaffe 4./NJG 3, B4+KA, Kjevik, Norway, 1945

1:72 Scale   Length   Width
Messerschmitt Bf 110G   7.25"   8.75"

In March 1945 4./NJG3 was formed with the purpose of intercepting Allied aircraft over Scandinavia but it only functioned for a couple of months. On May 8, 1945 the final function of the unit was evacuating German officers from the area. Aircraft Wr.Nr.110087 B4+KA was crewed by pilot Fw. Kurt Keilig, radio operator Fw. Kurt Schroter and mechanic Uffz. Karl Stamminger. This aircraft wasn't used in the evacuation because at the end of the war it was found in Kjevik Norway.

Messerschmitt Bf 110G

Designed to meet a Luftwaffe requirement for a long range, multipurpose fighter, the Bf-110 was first flown on May 12th, 1936. Fast and well-armed, the Bf-110 lacked maneuverability-a flaw that became glaringly obvious during the battle of Britain, when Bf-110s suffered heavy losses and were withdrawn from battle. Redesigned Bf-110s were equipped with radar and enjoyed great success as night fighters, eventually becoming the Luftwaffe's primary aircraft in that role. Most of Germany's night fighter aces flew the Bf-110 at least once, and some of them-including top German night fighter ace Heinz-Wolfgang Schnaufer-flew it exclusively.

Hobby Master's 1:72 scale Messerschmitt Bf 110 is an example of a well-crafted, quality model. It has a large bird-cage canopy that is removable, revealing pad-printed dials and gauges and rear gunner's position fitted with twin defensive machine guns. The top port of the engine nacelles is seamlessly blended with the radiators under each wing. There is a removable under-wing mounted fuel tank, twin rocket tubes on each wing and counter-balance weights separately attached to each aileron. A variety of weapons configurations such as center mounted bombs, nose- and center- mounted machine guns are included. The series includes night-fighter variants with nose-mounted radar antenna.
