Airfix Heinkel He.111 P-2 1:72 Plastic Model Aircraft Kit

The Airfix Heinkel He.111 P-2 is a 1:72 scale plastic model kit of the German Air Force bomber, built from 151 moulded components.

About this model

The P-2 variant is notable for its enlarged glazed nose section, which gave the crew wide visibility but left the aircraft exposed to fighter attack during the Battle of Britain. It served through both the daylight bombing campaign and the later night operations phase, forming a key part of the Luftwaffe's bomber force during WW2.

The kit is rated Skill Level 3, suited to modellers with some experience of multi-part plastic assembly. Two authentic marking schemes are included, letting you build the aircraft as it appeared with different operational units.
