$18

Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions. The Pe-8 was a famous and successful USSR heavy bomber that was designed in 1934 and first flown in 1936. Since the USSR did not have a definitive heavy bomber doctrine, only between 81 and 93 were built, but they lead active service lives. In use, the PE-8s performance matched Western Heavy Bombers designed during the same time. In August of 1941, PE-8s bombed Berlin. They were used to attack long range targets in German-held Eastern Europe, as well as for tactical support during the battles of Stalingrad and Kursk. It was a PE-8 that flew over German airspace between May 19th and June 13th in 1942 to deliver USSR Foreign Minister Molotov and his delegation from Moscow to London and then to Washington DC and back for talks on grand strategy against Nazi Germany. As a testament to the soundness of the design, PE-8s remained in service till the 1950s, even after the Tu-4 was available.

Vacuform Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed

Still factory sealed and rare. This is still the only 1/72 scale kit ever made of this Fokker Turbofan Mini-Transport Airliner. Features fine recessed panel lines, all main airframe parts, engines and wheels. Includes a clear canopy in mint condition and not yellowed. The VFW-Fokker 614 (also VFW 614) was a twin-engined jetliner designed and constructed by joint Dutch and West German aviation company VFW-Fokker. It is the first jet-powered passenger liner to be developed and produced in West Germany (the East German Baade 152 being the first German jet airliner), as well as the first German-built civil aircraft to have been manufactured in a decade. VDW-614s were operated by Cimber Air (Denmark), Touraine Air Transport and Air Alsace (the later two in France). The West German Air Force operated 3 aircraft. It proved to be a good aircraft, but there was a great deal of marketing confusion between the Dutch and German sides which greatly hurt the project. This major and other minor problem lead to poor sales and by 1977 the aircraft was discontinued. One still survives in a German Museum.
