This is one of the newer releases from Revell in 1/32. The kit features nicely recessed panel lines, the acceptable level of detail in the cockpit area, the engine is completely included, and one of the 2 canon bays can be build open. Cockpit detail is raised, with an option for decals for the instruments. There are decal options for 3 Aircrafts included in this kit.
There are many aftermarket sets available for this kit from Aires, CMK, Airwaves, Eduard and True detail for all area,s including a complete resin engine replacement. Eagle Calls and Condor have released decal sets for this subject in the past.
Straight from the box this kit can be build into a nice looking volksjager but with the use of some aftermarket sets this kit will end up into a real masterpiece!
