Tamiya 1/48 Heinkel HE219 UHU Fighter Scaled Plastic Model Kit

The Heinkel He 219 Uhu was arguably the most advanced piston-engine night fighter deployed by the Luftwaffe in World War II. It made a spectacular combat debut in June 1943, when a single prototype shot down five RAF Lancaster bombers in one mission. The A-7 was the final production variant, equipped with powerful DB 603G engines for improved high-altitude performance against Allied bombing raids.

This 1/48 scale Tamiya kit is a stunningly accurate replica of the formidable Uhu. It captures the aircraft's slim fuselage and long wings in style and features a highly detailed cockpit with ejection seats. The model offers numerous build options, including positionable wing flaps and the choice to display the detailed engines with open or closed nacelles. A die-cast metal weight is included for perfect balance, and the kit is completed with two crew figures and three marking options.
