Eduard Releases New Details on Upcoming New Tool Fw 190A-5 Light Fighter

Eduard has released new details on its upcoming new tool Fw 190A-5 Light Fighter model kit in 1/48 scale.

The offering will be released as a ProfiPACk edition kit containing new tool sprues and five marking options representing the classic fighter/JaBo variants. The decals were “carefully selected with regard to the armament variant (two-cannon wing), which is an important difference between this and the Fw 190A-5 kit of the previous generation.”

Liveries represent W/N 0152 594 flown by Maj. Hermann Graf, W/N 0157 298 flown by Maj. Josef Priller, W/N 1501 flown by Oblt. Walter Nowotny, W/N 538 of 6/Schl.G 1 and an A-5 flown by Oblt. Rolf Strohal of Stab I./JG 1.

The kit (82143) is currently slated for release in March. Click below to check out additional images.
