V-2 Missile |
|||||||||||||||||
The epitome of Hitler's "Wunder
Weapons" and the most quickly thought of when someone speaks of the
radical or advanced Nazi designs from WWII, the V-2 earned its place in
history as being the first guided ballistic missile to see widespread
use. While crude and innacurate by today's laser guided, GPS
cued, "smart" bomb standards, the V-2 was a big leap forward for the
technology of the day. Due to its historical noteriety, this
subject has been molded many a time over the years. Back some
decades ago, Revell chose the V-2 as the subject of one of its "History
Makers" kits and rendered it, along with its trailer / erector in
1/54th scale. While out of production, that kit can still be
found on eBay and on the back shelves of some hobby stores. The
V-2 has also been issued in other, more popular scales over the
years. Mauve rendered one in 1/48th and there's been several in
1/35th. Of late has been the versions rendered by Condor, Special
Hobby and MPM. |

Condor has gotten good mileage out of this kit. They've kept it in production for several years now and it is very reasonably priced. Here are some scans of the kit contents: |
