Messerschmitt Bf109E-3/E-4
WWII German FIghter 

As the battle hardened Bf109 fighter pilots of the Luftwaffe began operations against Britain following the Dunkirk evacuation, they would be at a disadvantage for the first time. With only enough fuel for limited time over England, any mechanical issue or damage during combat would result in their capture at best, but certainly an end to their war.

This model bears the markings of German pilot Rolf Pingel who was captured by the British after a forced landing near Dover in 1941. Hauptmann and Gruppenkommandeur Pingel is credited with 28 aerial victories.

Included Markings:

  • Red 1, Hauptmann. Rolf Pingel, 2./Jagdgeeschwader 53, Rennes, France, late-May 1940.

Specs:

  • Scale: 1:48
  • Skill: 3
  • Number of Parts: 107
  • Dimensions (mm): L183 x W205
  • Age Suitability: 8+
