1/72 German Focke-Wulf Fw190D-9 & D-11 Dora 2 Aircraft Set JV44 Flight Squadron

Description

This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.

Adolf Galland, who was the general manager of the Luftwaffe fighter squadrons during World War II, was forced out of the position due to disagreements with Hermann Goering; due to requests from pilots, he created a jet fighter combat unit, the JV44, to operate the Me262. The Me262 is extremely vulnerable during takeoff and landing, so NV44’s fighter corps provided support during those times; the squadron also used the Fw190D. For low-altitude air defense, the underside was painted red with white stripes to prevent accidental firing of friendly anti-aircraft guns. Galland fulfilled his mission until the end of the war. The engine of the D-11 was changed to a Jumo 213E, and the armament mounted to the nose was removed; the inner main wing was equipped with 20mm MG151 and the outer wing carried a 30mm MK108.
