The Dornier Do335A Pfeil is notable for its unusual paired-engine layout, one engine at the nose and one at the rear, which gave the type exceptional straight-line speed for its era. Tamiya recreates this distinctive aircraft in a detailed 1/48 scale kit, letting builders study its design and wartime context.
The real Do335A achieved high speeds thanks to twin Daimler-Benz engines and advanced streamlining, with only 28 aircraft completed by the end of hostilities. The Tamiya kit mirrors these key features, emphasising the Pfeil's slim fuselage and rear-engine arrangement.
This 1/48 scale kit provides finely moulded fuselage and wing parts aimed at hobbyists seeking realism. The kit allows the canopy and bomb hatch to be modelled open or closed, includes a pilot figure, and supplies decals for three different aircraft markings to support varied display options.
