A little patience required
This Dragon kit is from 1991.
It comes with 4 gray sprue and 1 clear sprue. The parts are nicely molded with engraved panel lines.
Kit includes a fret of photo etch for seatbelts and the antenna array on the nose.
Fit was just average for a dragon kit, which usually go together very nice. You will need A LOT of nose weight to keep the plane from sitting on its tail.
The photo etch that makes up the antenna is very fiddly and difficult to assemble and get attached to the airplane.
The kit includes decals for 2 versions and went down very nice.
The canopy is very crude. There is no bracing molded into the clear parts which makes masking a little tricky.
Overall good kit. Does take a little more work than most Dragon kits.
Very good kit from DML
The Heinkel Uhu, was an excelent night-fighter of Germany in WWII. The DML kit is also of great quality. It has a very good level of detail in general. It comes with photo-etched parts, especially for that nose radar, tipical of that time, very realistic, but somewhat difficult to glue. A must for a Luftwaffe planes collection.
