KARAM-02.72 - Karo-As Modellbau 1/72 Focke-Wulf Fw-58C Weihe - WWWEB10112253
Preowned, Resealed, Mint
The Focke-Wulf Fw 58 Weihe was the Luftwaffe's standard twin-engined trainer, designed under Kurt Tank and powered by two 240 hp Argus As 10C engines. Beyond crew training it served widely as a liaison, staff transport, and ambulance aircraft, with late-war examples pressed into night harassment duties on the Eastern Front. Over 1,300 were built, yet the type remains rarely kitted, making this a genuinely uncommon subject.
This is a limited-production kit from Karo-As Modellbau, a small West German specialist producer, dating from the late 1980s ("W.-Germany" boxing, box art by Horák). The C variant features the smooth, fully-glazed nose. Rear panel includes full specifications and three-view drawings.
Box contents:
- Limited-run parts for the Fw 58C with glazed nose
- Decals for Luftwaffe markings (OT+DX as depicted in box art)
- Instructions with specifications
