The Hasegawa 02275 German Air Force Focke Wulf Fw189A-1/2 model in 1/72 scale is a faithful replica of the legendary German reconnaissance aircraft Focke-Wulf Fw 189A-1/2, used by the Luftwaffe during World War II. This is an assembly kit made of high-quality plastic, prepared by the renowned Hasegawa company, valued in the modeling market for its precision and attention to detail.

History of the original

The Focke-Wulf Fw 189 "Uhu" was a twin-engine long-range reconnaissance aircraft that entered service in 1940 during World War II. It was most famously used on the Eastern Front, where its excellent visibility from the glazed cockpit and low maneuvering speed made it an excellent tool for reconnaissance and artillery spotting. These aircraft were operated by Germany (Luftwaffe) between 1940 and 1945.
