RoleHeavy fighter
First fly27 January 1939
Built10037
The Lockheed P-38 Lightning is a World War II-era American piston-engined fighter aircraft. Developed to a United States Army Air Corps requirement, the P-38 had distinctive twin booms and a central nacelle containing the cockpit and armament. Allied propaganda claimed it had been nicknamed the fork-tailed devil (German: der Gabelschwanz-Teufel) by the Luftwaffe and “two planes, one pilot” (2飛行機、1パイロット Ni hikōki, ippairotto) by the Japanese. The P-38 was used for interception, dive bombing, level bombing, ground attack, night fighting, photo reconnaissance, radar and visual pathfinding for bombers and evacuation missions, and extensively as a long-range escort fighter when equipped with drop tanks under its wings.

RoleFighter and ground attack aircraft
First fly14 October 1938
Built13738

The Curtiss P-40 Warhawk was an American single-engine, single-seat, all-metal fighter and ground attack aircraft that first flew in 1938. The P-40 design was a modification of the previous Curtiss P-36 Hawk which reduced development time and enabled a rapid entry into production and operational service. The Warhawk was used by the air forces of 28 nations, including those of most Allied powers during World War II, and remained in front line service until the end of the war. It was the third most-produced American fighter, after the P-51 and P-47; by November 1944, when production of the P-40 ceased, 13,738 had been built, all at Curtiss-Wright Corporation’s main production facilities at Buffalo, New York.

F-22 Raptor USAF

A news 2012 of the brand Hasegawa the kit : «Nakajima KI42-I Hayabusa 64th Limited Edition – Hasegawa 07303».

Hasegawa has accurately replicated the Lockheed Martin/Boeing F-22 Raptor, a modern single-seat fighter aircraft of the fifth generation that utilizes stealth technology. First placed in the U.S. Air Force inventory in December of 2005, the F-22 is primarily an air superiority fighter — although it also has the capability to carry out ground attacks, electronic warfare and signals intelligence operations. Every plastic model kit produced by Hasegawa is highly anticipated, and the 1/48 F-22 Raptor is no exception. Officially licensed by Lockheed-Martin, it captures the intimidating profile of the full-size jet fighter, with lots of the sort of scale details that Hasegawa is known for.

Sd.Kfz.261 Kleine Panzerfunkwagen

A new model from the brand Dragon Model the kit : Sd.Kfz.261 Kleine Panzerfunkwagen – DML 7447

Features : -Intricate Sd.Kfz.261 newly produced -Preformed frame and mast antennas -Tow hook molded on both front and rear of the vehicle -Finely molded one-piece hull w/fine detail -Intricate external stowage included -Chassis presented in full detail -Delicate wheels w/authentic tire tread pattern -Hull-top cover assembled from separate parts -Spare wheels included -Finely molded jerry can included

Dragon has been constantly expanding its popular 1/72 scale range of model Leichter Panzerspahwagen light reconnaissance vehicles. An Sd.Kfz.260 was released a short time ago, and now Dragon is offering yet another interesting variant. This time it is an Sd.Kfz.261. The Sd.Kfz.260 and 261 were similar in that they were both designed for signals units, with a total of 493 produced from November 1940 through till April 1943. They were designed specifically as armored (but unarmed) radio communication vehicles. The Sd.Kfz.261 was fitted with a FuG.12 long-range radio set connected to a frame antenna and also a telescopic antenna. In due course the Sd.Kfz.260/261 family was replaced by halftrack radio vehicles. Dragon’s 1/72 scale model makes use of the newly tooled Sd.Kfz.260. It has brand new parts such as the frame antenna and the exquisitely produced telescopic antenna mounted on the left side of the hull. These radio components provide the Sd.Kfz.261 with a unique silhouette and cause it to really stand out from other members of the Leichter Panzerspahwagen family. The hull-top opening is made of plastic, this material being much easier to work with than photo-etched parts. After painting in appropriate colors, modelers can apply Cartograf high-quality decals to finish off their distinctive-looking Sd.Kfz.261!
