1:48 Focke-Wulf Fw190 A-8/A-8R2, aircraft model kit

This 1:48 aircraft model kit captures the Focke-Wulf Fw190 A-8/A-8R2 with the compact, muscular lines that made the fighter one of the Luftwaffe's key front-line designs in WWII. The finished model measures 219 mm in wingspan and 190 mm in fuselage length, giving the single-engine aircraft a balanced display size that still leaves room for cockpit, landing gear and surface detail to stand out. The kit is designed to build either the Fw190 A-8 or the specialized R2 variant from the included parts. In the historical aircraft, the A-8 configuration used four 20 mm cannon and two 13 mm machine guns, while the R2 replaced two 20 mm cannon with 30 mm guns and added armor protection for attacks on heavily armed bombers. That choice gives the build a clear technical focus, with the variant selection shaping the final look of the model. Marking options for 1 aircraft add another layer of finishing work through camouflage and insignia placement. On the bench, the 600-minute assembly time supports a more involved build with room for careful trimming, painting and final detailing. The completed fighter suits a shelf display, a WWII aircraft lineup or a diorama scene with lowered landing gear and period markings. Paints and cement are required separately.
