Build the Focke-Wulf Ta183A Huckebein in 1/48 Scale

The Tamiya 89586 1/48 scale kit recreates the Focke-Wulf Ta183A Huckebein, a forward-looking jet concept from Kurt Tank's designs. Though it never reached operational service, this model represents the aircraft's slim profile and advanced planform, giving hobbyists a rewarding assembly with crisp moulding and accurate surface detail.

Design Influence and Historical Context

The Ta183A was imagined as a fast jet fighter armed with guns and space for air-to-air armament. Its theoretical layout later informed post-war jet thinking. This kit lets builders study that transitional era of aviation while assembling a finely detailed scale example.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly Type: Requires assembly and painting
  • Features: Detailed cockpit and surface details
This kit suits intermediate to advanced modellers. Expect precise trimming, careful fitting, and painting skills to achieve the best finish. Patience with seam filling and panel line care will pay off.
Use styrene plastic cement for major joins and CA glue for small details. Acrylics and enamels both give good results; apply a primer first to check for flaws and ensure paint adhesion.
Soak decals carefully, use a setting solution for conformity over panels, and seal with a clear coat. Light weathering and panel wash bring out the surface detail without obscuring markings.
