Description

This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.

From the manufacturer:

Germany’s dive-bombing dynamo.

Dive-bombing. Torpedo-bombing. Night fighting. The Junkers Ju 88 could do it all – and then some. Over the hot, dusty battlefields of North Africa, the A-5 tropical relied on extensive air filters to keep out sand and dirt. Rommel’s Afrikakorps relied on the Ju 88 for support strikes against Allied armor and positions. The broad-winged Ju 88 could carry 3-4,000 lbs of bombs to targets at moderate range. Used effectively as part of Rommel’s combined arms strategy, the Ju 88 helped Germany reverse Italian losses in North Africa and nearly carry the continent.
