You can field a whole infantry company 1/1 ratio with each set as they contain enough riflemen, light machine guns, mortars, heavy machine guns, anti-tank weapons, radio operators, officers, sergeants and ammo carriers. They are one-piece castings as much as possible but some weapons such as Mortars and heavy Machine guns come in easy assemble multiple parts. 

We will be following the release of the late War British and German infantry with US infantry and will expand to Russians and Paratroopers early 2021.

1/144 bf-109 G-5/G-6



1/144 bf-109 G-5/G-6

MKM14417   Messerschmitt Bf 109G-5/G-6 (2in1 = 2 kits in 1 box)
(Luftwaffe, Slovak Insurgent Air Force)
                       
The Messerschmitt Bf 109 was a German fighter aircraft designed in the mid-1930s. Powered by a Jumo and later by Daimler-Benz in-line engine, it represented the first modern fighter of the era. Originally conceived as an interceptor, later models were developed to fulfil various roles, such as bomber escort, fighter-bomber, day and night fighter, ground-attack or reconnaissance. Various armament modifications evolved in service, using pre-packaged or field kits. The aircraft was of an all-metal monocoque construction, featuring an enclosed canopy and a retractable landing gear.

The G-series aircraft were introduced in mid-1942. The initial variants (G-1 through G-4) differed only in minor details from its predecessor, the Bf 109F, most notably in the more powerful DB 605 engine. Odd numbered variants were built as high-altitude fighters, while even numbered variants were air superiority fighters and fighter-bombers.

The Bf 109 was the most produced fighter aircraft in the aviation history, and besides the German Luftwaffe it served in many other air forces and gallantly fought in all aerial combats of WWII. 


Colour schemes included in the kit:
1)   Bf 109G-5, << + –, Gerhard Barkhorn, II./JG 52, Eastern Front, November 1943
2)   Bf 109G-5, Yellow 11, Gerhard Kroll, 9./JG 54, Black 1, Luftwaffe, Lüneburg Air Base, Germany, April 1944
3)   Bf 109G-6/R6, Red 13, Heinrich Bartels, 11./JG 27, Luftwaffe, Kalamaki airfield, Greece, November 1943

4)   Bf 109G-6, Combined Squadron of the Slovak Insurgent Air Force, Slovak National Uprising, Tri Duby airfield, Slovakia, August 1944
  

This injection-moulded kit contains 16 parts, 1 clear part (the cockpit canopy) and 3 resin parts (the cockpit interior and the wing bulges). A comprehensive instruction leaflet and a decal sheet are included.

Available for Pre-order at http://www.kits-shop.com/index.php  (run by Miniwing) and free worldwide shipping (November 2013)
