I think towards the end of the war they might well have Shaun - the Luftwaffe certainly took a kicking.ShaunW wrote:Very nice indeed Frankie and there is a strong chance that this kit is very much better than the Matchbox kit of the aircraft I built back in the dark ages! I've heard criticism of Academy's decals on here before. IIRC the cannon were based on 3.7cm FLAK weapons and worked very well in the aerial anti-tank role although they did have an adverse effect on the aircraft's performance, which was not brilliant in any event - not a huge problem on the Eastern Front, where I believe all of these machines were deployed, as the Red Air Force did not have the overwhelming dominance enjoyed by the Allied Air Forces in the West.
Great looking Stuka that.
