Designed as an emergency fighter to bolster Germany's dwindling air power, it was notable for its simple construction and use of readily available materials. Despite its innovative design, the He 162 saw limited operational service due to the war's end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThis model kit allows you to recreate a significant and technologically advanced aircraft from the late stages of World War II. The detailed engine provides a unique level of realism. Building this kit provides insight into the design and function of early jet aircraft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThis is a plastic model kit that requires assembly. Paint and glue are required for a detailed finish. Use modelling tools to carefully remove parts from the sprues and follow the instructions for assembly.
