ICM Plastic Model Kit
ICM Hs 123A-1 Legion Condor Attack Aircraft (1/32) 32016
The Henschel Hs 123A-1 gained its combat debut during the Spanish Civil War, where it was deployed in limited numbers by the German Condor Legion. First sent to Spain in late 1936, the aircraft proved itself a capable close support platform, especially in rugged terrain and under fire. Used extensively by unit VJ/88, it excelled in ground-attack operations and impressed with its durability, agility, and short-field performance. Despite being misclassified as a fighter, the aircraft’s true strength lay in supporting infantry on the front lines. This ICM 1/32 scale kit accurately represents the Legion Condor variant of the Hs 123A, featuring subtle differences like repositioned Venturi tubes and removed antenna mast—details unique to the Spanish deployment.
