Focke-Wulf Triebflugel


Recommended Posts

Here is a Focke-Wulf Triebflugel I built back in 2012.

It is a Takara 1:144 gashapon pre-painted partially-assembled kit which I took apart, had the paint and markings sanded down and re-painted and re-assembled.

The kit was a nightfighter variant hence the thimble nose for the radar.

The kit was fully painted and varnished with brush and decals came from various sources.

It represents "Black 3", of an ISS (industry point defence) unit, Luftwaffe, Germany (fictitious of course).

 

All comments welcome and thanks for looking

Miguel

Wonderful whif ! Looks like landing would be a bit tricky.

That's what the americans found out with their VTOL experiments!!

Nice build.  👍👍  But it looks like something out of an aeronautical engineer's nightmares!

Indeed. It's a fascinating design but it's doubtful it would have worked.

1/144?? If you drop this on the carpet you won't find it anymore... Amazing model!

Ha ha!! You could say that of a Bf 109 but this is considerably larger!
