1/72 Corgi Legends Fw 190, JG 2 Richtofen, Hans Hahn.

Corgi Aviation Archive Legends Series AA34303
Focke-Wulf Fw 190A Diecast Model
Luftwaffe III/JG 2 Richtofen, Hans Hahn, Theville, France, May 1942

Hans 'Assi' Hahn was the tenth highest scoring Western Front Luftwaffe ace. One of his regular aircraft with III./JG 2 during the late Summer/ early Autumn of 1942 has on it the Kommandeur's 'Cockerel Head' emblem and the Gruppenstab's unusual style of tactical markings, white outlined in black, with the Gruppe vertical bar aft of the fuselage cross extended into a wrap around band. 'Assi' Hahn's 68 confirmed Western kills, including four 'heavies' made him one of the famous aces of the Channel Front. He later added 40 more Eastern Front victories when posted to the command of II./JG 54 before he crashed behind enemy lines.

The Collectors View.

The Fw 190 was one of the best fighters of WWII. This model looks the part with a great pilot too. Part of the Legends range it comes with a fixed u/c and it displays beautifully wheels down. Initially concieved as a cheaper alternative to the Corgi Aviation Archive range, Lagends are now retailing for the same price in some markets. This is a model well worth having.
