Focke Wulf TL-Jaeger Flitzer WWII German Jet Fighter 1/72 Revell Germany
Detailed 1/72 scale assembly model kit of the Focke Wulf TL-Jager "Flitzer", a planned but never produced single-engine jet fighter for the German Luftwaffe in World War II. The Focke-Wulf TL-Jager was to be powered by a single Heinkel S11A jet engine with an additional Walter rocket attached underneath. The Flitzer was expected to reach a top speed in excess of 500 miles per hour with climb rate comparable to the revolutionary Me163 Komet rocket-powered fighter. However, the Flitzer never did enter production, and the program was cancelled in favor of the Me262, the world's first operational jet fighter. This Revell Germany 1/72 assembly kit depicts the Focke-Wulf TL-Jager as it would appear if the type had gone into production. Features: Incised surfaces with recessed panel lines. Detailed cockpit. Detailed landing gear. Landing gear can be optionally extended or retracted. Antennae. Decals for 2 fictional German Luftwaffe versions.
