The K-2 variant took this further by carrying the Ruhrstahl SD 1400 “Fritz X,” one of history’s first radio-controlled guided bombs. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guided-bomb capability made the Do 217 K-2 a significant step in aerial warfare, famously used to sink the Italian battleship *Roma* in 1943. For modellers, this kit offers not just an aircraft, but a piece of technological and military history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarefully trim and clean the parts from their sprues, then glue together the fuselage, wings, and undercarriage. Assemble the Fritz X bombs onto the bomb pylons, then paint using historically accurate colours (Italeri’s instructions include a recommended palette). Apply the decals from the included sheet to build one of six flight-worthy markings. Finally, display your model on a shelf or in a diorama.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a plastic model kit. Assembly, paint, and glue are required.
