The Airfix Heinkel He111 P-2 Model Kit is a great choice for any model collection. First flying in 1935 when Germany was banned from building bombers under the Treaty of Versailles, the Heinkel He111 was at first disguised as a fast transport plane. However, its real purpose soon became clear when it was used as a bomber during the Spanish Civil War. By the start of the Second World War, the He111 had undergone some major changes, resulting in the P model. The engines were more powerful Daimler Benz DB601 units and there was an enlarged glass nose section, affording them more visibility while also making the crew more vulnerable. During the Battle of Britain the P variant was phased out, but it continued to serve in some numbers. The model kit captures this aircraft in 1:72 scale and it’s ideal for experienced model collectors. With two scheme options, it’s made up of 151 parts and recreates the He111 in authentic detail.
