Takom 5017 Sanger-Bredt Silbervogel Suborbital Bomber 1/35

Takom 5017 Sanger-Bredt Silbervogel Suborbital Bomber 1/35 is an exceptionally unique plastic model kit that recreates one of the most futuristic designs from World War II. Designed in Germany by engineers Eugen Sänger and Irene Bredt, the famous Silbervogel, which means "Silver Bird" in German, was a forerunner of today’s suborbital vehicle and strategic bomber concepts, theoretically capable of striking targets on other continents through suborbital flights.

• Model scale: 1/35
• User country of the project: Germany (Third Reich)
• Historical period: World War II (1938–1945, a concept that was never implemented in combat)
• Material: high-quality plastic
• Category: plastic model kit
• Set does not include glue or paints

Silbervogel was an avant-garde project for a suborbital rocket bomber (Raketenbomber, RaBo), developed for the German "Amerika Bomber" program. Its purpose was theoretically to bomb strategic targets in the USA, utilizing advanced liquid-fueled rocket propulsion, which allowed flight at altitudes exceeding 100 km. Although the plane was never produced or entered service, the concept was ahead of its time and influenced future suborbital vehicle designs.

The model produced by Takom features a very accurate representation of the prototype’s characteristic aerodynamic shapes along with details that allow for an impressive result when assembled and painted carefully. The 1/35 scale enables you to build a model of impressive size, making it a true centerpiece for any military or science-fiction model collection.

Recommendation: We particularly recommend this model to experienced modelers and enthusiasts of unique and experimental military designs. This is a difficulty level 4/5 kit – the set includes numerous parts that require precise fitting and painting with careful attention to detail, providing a fascinating challenge for advanced hobbyists.

Takom 5017 Sanger-Bredt Silbervogel Suborbital Bomber 1/35 is a model that not only allows you to develop your modeling skills but also expands your historical knowledge of advanced aviation concepts from the World War II era. An excellent choice for collectors and military enthusiasts who are looking for exceptional themes to add to their collection!
