Italeri 1466 - 1/72 Junker Ju 87 G-2 Kanonenvogel scale kit

The Italeri 1466 kit recreates the iconic Junker Ju 87 G-2 Kanonenvogel in 1/72 scale. Famous for its inverted gull wings and unmistakable silhouette, the Ju 87 Stuka is a standout subject for modellers who appreciate historic wartime aircraft. This kit captures the aircrafts character while offering accurate scale detail for display builds.

Operational background and modelling interest

The Junker Ju 87 G-2 earned its reputation in part through anti-tank roles, thanks to its underwing cannon armament. The Italeri 1466 kit reflects these defining features, letting builders assemble and study the twin underwing guns and other signature design elements. It provides a clear example of wartime aircraft engineering for those focused on historical accuracy.

Assembly challenge and showcase quality

Suited to intermediate builders, the kit has finely moulded components that reward careful assembly and painting. Attention to fit and finishing will produce a convincing museum-style display piece. When finished, the Ju 87 G-2 holds its own among other 1/72 WWII aircraft, offering a compact but detailed representation of the period.
