Description

This is an injection-plastic jet aircraft model kit.


Adapted from Eduard:

Heinkel He 280 was the world's first jet fighter. It was a single seat, double engined jet fighter, with nose type landing gear and an ejection seat. The V3 prototype was flown on July 5th, 1942. The V1 prototype was later tested with Argus As 014 engines, also used as the V1 missile engine. Durning these trials, the pilot had to use the ejection seat to leave an out of control aircraft due to heavy icing on the aircraft. It was the first ejection from a jet aircraft in history. The V2 prototype was tested with JUMO 004 engines. V7 and V8 were used as gliders for new tail designs and high-speed research. Altogether, 9 prototypes were built, of these, three of them were jet powered.
