        This is a Plastic 1/48 Focke-Wulf Fw190D-9 Airplane from Tamiya.

     The Fw190D-9 was developed in an effort to give the fighter sufficient
performance to intercept the high altitude formations of B-17's and B-24's
flying over occupied Europe.  Increased performance was achieved by installing
the liquid cooled 1750HP Jumo 213 which required a much longer fuselage.
Tamiya's Fw190D-9 builds up into a highly detailed 1/48th scale replica and
includes high quality water activated decals for three aircraft.

FEATURES: Highly detailed 1/48th scale plastic kit for static display.
          Approximately 50 parts in medium grey and clear with fine recessed
            panel lines.
          Detailed cowl with annular radiator and optional position cowl flaps.
          Multi-part canopy may be posed open or closed - includes two types.
          Rotating propeller: the propeller plugs into a polythene bushing
            which allows adding it late in assembly so there is less chance of
            breakage.
          Highly detailed cockpit with accurate instrument panel, seat, control
            stick and rudder pedals, bulkheads, and sculpted pilot figure.
          Detailed pictorial instructions with separate sheet for color
            details.
