History:
The Henschel Hs 129 was Germany’s primary ground-attack aircraft during World War II, designed to take on heavily armoured ground targets with precision. Developed under challenging conditions, the B-2 variant marked a significant upgrade, featuring more powerful engines and improved avionics. The R configuration, fitted with the massive 75mm BK 7.5 cannon, was specifically intended for anti-tank operations on the Eastern Front. Despite its cramped cockpit and maintenance difficulties, the Hs 129 earned a reputation for toughness and devastating firepower. This Zoukei-Mura kit pays homage to this unique aircraft, delivering a meticulously engineered model rich in historical accuracy and mechanical realism.
