Brief historical background:
The Dornier Do 335A Pfeil (Arrow) was one of the most innovative German fighter-bomber aircraft of World War II, distinguished by its tandem engine layout and exceptionally high performance. Used by the Luftwaffe from 1944 to 1945, it was mainly deployed for reconnaissance flights, interception, and possibly as a fast bomber. However, due to its late introduction into service near the end of the conflict, it did not have a significant impact on the course of the war.

The Eduard FE168 set allows for a significant enhancement of the cockpit and internal details of the model, offering, among others, realistic seatbelts, instrument panel equipment, as well as side console details and interior fittings. The photo-etched parts are characterized by extraordinary precision and thinness, impossible to achieve with traditional plastic parts. Using this set will clearly highlight the realism and authenticity of the Do 335A replica, especially for diorama enthusiasts or modelers participating in 1:48 scale competitions.
