SQS MESSERSCHMITT BF109E 50 ARF 11864

At the outbreak of hostilities in WWII, the Messerschmitt Me 109 E proved itself a formidable opponent as the main strike fighter of the German Luftwaffe. With its high wing loads and powerful engine, the Messerschmitt could attack at high speed, giving it the edge over other strike fighters. Although fighting on several fronts around the world, its epic struggle with the English Spitfire in the Battle of Britain to decide control of the skies over Europe marked the Messerschmitt's place in history. Now this famous historical fighter can be flown again with either a 4-cycle 50-class engine or a 2-cycle 46-class. The highly detailed camouflage design has also been exquisitely reproduced with printed MasterCote film covering. In addition, a uniquely shaped spinner is included that also suits a 3-blade propeller for even greater scale appearance. As nearly all parts are pre-assembled, only a few steps remain for completion. The detailed scale finish of this model makes it an impressive interior display, but the true sprit of the Messerschmitt can be found in the air with its sharp turning maneuverability and sports flight performance.
