As the Second World War was coming to an end in Europe, Canadian troops found a damaged FW 190D-9 abandoned at Hustedt airfield, not an unusual occurrence but this aircraft had a difference, it was fitted with the tail unit from a Ta 152. By the wars end a few more of these aircraft were found, the question is, were they short of some normal D-9 tail units on the assembly line and fitted some from the Ta 152 or was the design of the Ta 152 tail going to become the standard tail unit for all FW 190 production?
The Eduard kit with its contents still bagged up.
A pair of Quickboost hollowed end exhausts are added as a cheap way to improve the look.
The kit includes the standard tailed fuselage(with 2 marking options) plus a new pair of fuselage halves with the Ta 152 tail fitted.(with 3 marking options)
I will build this kit as featured on the kit box top, brown 4 of 7./JG 26.
