Me-262 Schwalbe Kit Card

The Messerschmitt Me-262 Schwalbe (Swallow) was the world's first operational jet fighter. Entering service in 1944, it quickly proved itself as a terrifying opponent to meet, with its high speeds and vast array of armaments. Multiple variants were created, including a tank buster with a 50mm cannon on the nose. It was faster and heavier armed than any allied fighter, including the British Gloster Meteor which entered service 3 months after.

It became a basis for many future jet projects after the fall of Nazi Germany, and even saw further post-war usage by the Czechoslovak Air Force up until 1951!

A little bit of experimenting with this kit compared to my previous WW2 kits, with a split wing and connector design to incorporate dihedral wings. It is a small yet effective detail! The engines should face straight down. If not, perform a switcheroo!

Looped and Loop-less variants available. Versions without the runners for those not interested in the format, along with the individual part files.

If it's still a little wobbly, try increasing the Z axis (uppy-downy) by 10-20%!

Bribes accepted for any edits... ;)

Always love seeing your makes! Thank you :)
