The
P-38 was the most wellknown
fighter aircraft of WWII, because of its unusual silhouette. This twin
powered fighter, with its characteristic double fuselage was recognized
instantly and feared for its power by most enemy aircraft.
The

different tasks.
The 21st Century model ist the J-version nicknamed "Putt Putt
Maru" which operated in the Pazific Theater. It is armed with 5 MGs, 2
rocket launchers, two bombs or two external fueltanks and two 5x rocket

detailed.
The model has a wingspan of 88 cm and a length of 65 cm! It is an
awsome eyecatcher! The detailed and printed on markings complete the a
realistic impression of this impressing model.

Modellers
who miss something on this highly detailed model are free to add more
detail on there own. What is great on these models is they are not
avaliable as kits in this scale at all and would be as expensive
whitout beeing built too.
So all models are made from plastic and be fixed with screws or
superglue, they can be easiely disassambled and converted or detailed
even more!
A
profi modeler will convert this model to a superior masterpiece easiely.
The soldier figures are of the same size like for example the commander
of the Tamiya King Tiger RC-Tank. Which means they are almost the same
scale. Eather 1/16 or 1/18 scale? How ever they can be shown side by
side with other models in 1/16 scale whitout sowing the difference to
much.
The enclosed soldier figures are of high quality in design and painting
and need not to be redone. Who dislikes the moveable armes and legs may
glue them in position and paste the seams with putty.
Most customers will like the model like it comes from the box and who
hasn't the skill or time to modify the model gets a great model for a
great price!
