1/72 047 Planet Models Focke-Wulf Entwurf B 3x1000
Resin Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
A superb kit from 1998 that features high-definition resin pieces, very good cockpit, mint condition & perfectly clear (not yellowed) canopy, enclosed wheel wells, full decals and more. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions. Focke-Wulf performed three different projects, known as A, B and C for medium bombers with a payload of 1000kg of bombs, a range of 1000km and a speed of 1000km/h; hence the nickname '3x1000' for these designs. There was no armament, the speed being more than enough defense for the time. Project B (this model) was a tail-less flying wing, with a swept back leading edge of 45 degrees. It was to be powered by two He S 011 turbojets, each with 1300 kg of thrust. The engines were mounted in the wing roots and either side of the cockpit. The trailing edges of the outer wing sections were swept at about 25 degrees. The vertical control surfaces were at the wing tips and positioned straight down.
