Hannants http://alpha.hannants.co.uk http://alpha.hannants.co.uk/product/MKM14437 Focke-Wulf Ta-152H-0 'Reich Defender'. Two injection-moulded kits are supplied in this box and each kit contains 26 parts and one clear part (the cockpit canopy). A decal sheet is included allowing a Britsih and Luftwaffe aircaft to be built. The Ta-152H was one of the ultimate and finest German fighters of WWII, primarily designed for high-altitude operations. Its development began in the summer of 1943 with an aim to supersede the Fw-190D-9. It was a single-seat monoplane of an all-metal structure, featuring an enclosed pressurised canopy and a retractable landing gear. It was powered by a Jumo 213E in-line piston engine and its armament comprised three cannons. The prototype, designated the Fw-190V33/U1, flew in July 1944 and the Ta-152 series production began in late 1944. Eventually, only some 43 machines were built, including 20 pre-production H-0 aircraft and a batch of the first series Ta-152H-1s. The first Ta-152s entered service with the Luftwaffe in January 1945 and although being capable interceptors, they came too late to be used in their role and to make a significant impact on the air war over Europe. A number of Ta-152Hs fell into Allied hands and some of them were examined in Britain and the USA post-war.

The L-29 'Delfin' (NATO code Maya) was a basic, intermediate and weapons training jet aircraft developed by the Aero Vodochody company in Czechoslovakia early in the 1960s. It was a two-seat, all-metal monoplane powered by a Motorlet M-701 turbojet engine. The sturdy L-29 became the standard military training type of the Eastern Bloc air forces (except Poland) and it was also exported to the Middle East, Asia and Africa. More than 3,600 'Delfin' trainers had been built by 1974, testifying to the type's timeless design. In 1967, a dedicated single seat aerobatic version was developed as the L-29A Akrobat, wearing special livery, while some other military two-seaters also wore highly conspicuous but interesting anti-camouflage schemes.
