Product Overview
Recreate one of World War II's most formidable German fighters with the Tamiya 1/48 Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A-8/A-8 R2 plastic model kit. This highly detailed kit allows builders to assemble either the standard Fw 190 A-8 fighter or the heavily armed A-8/R2 "Bomber Killer" variant, renowned for its enhanced firepower against Allied heavy bombers. Measuring approximately 8.6 inches (21.9 cm) long with a 7.5-inch (19.0 cm) wingspan, the completed model showcases Tamiya's outstanding fit, crisp molding, and historically accurate detailing.
Engineered for an enjoyable building experience, the kit features optional parts for early and late-production A-8 aircraft, specialized R2 armor components, and two different propeller styles. Builders can display the aircraft with an open or closed canopy while choosing from five authentic marking options. Detailed cockpit components, realistic landing gear, and finely engraved panel lines make this an excellent project for both experienced aircraft modelers and WWII aviation enthusiasts.
