Italeri 0072S - 1/72 Mistel 1 Ju 88 A-4 and Bf 109 F-4 Collector Kit  [IT-0072S]

Mistel tandem reproduced in 1/72 scale - Ju 88 A-4 with Bf 109 F-4

Late in World War II designers experimented with innovative attack concepts that reduced risk to aircrew while increasing stand-off accuracy. The Mistel pairing combined a modified Ju 88 bomber loaded for impact with a Bf 109 fighter mounted above it, allowing the fighter pilot to guide the bomber to its target before separation. This Italeri 1/72 scale kit captures that unusual engineering arrangement and gives modellers a chance to study the build and display possibilities of the configuration.
