Academy 12404 - 1/72 JU-87-G Stuka 'Kanonen Vogel' Model Kit Overview

This Academy 12404 - 1/72 JU-87-G Stuka 'Kanonen Vogel' Model Kit gives a clear miniature representation of one of World War II's most recognisable dive bombers. The kit focuses on the Stuka's distinctive lines and armament, offering a satisfying build for collectors who value historical detail.

Compact History and Design

The JU-87-G earned the 'Kanonen Vogel' nickname because of its anti-tank cannon fitment, and this kit reflects those key visual cues such as the inverted gull wing and sturdy undercarriage. Careful moulding brings out panel lines and structural features that appeal to scale enthusiasts.

Build Advice and Display Tips

At 1/72 scale the model balances detail with manageable assembly time, making it a good fit for modellers who have completed a few kits. Take care when fitting small parts and consider using fine-tipped adhesives and masking for painting to achieve crisp markings for display.

Key Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
This kit is best tackled after a couple of simpler builds; it has small components and fine detail that benefit from prior modelling experience.
Acrylics and enamels both work well on plastic kits; use a primer first and thin coats for even coverage on 1/72 scale surfaces.
Handle tiny parts with tweezers, dry-fit before gluing, and use a fine brush or toothpick to apply small amounts of glue to avoid excess residue.
