Revell 1/48 Junkers JU 52 / 3M Airline Version 04558

Messerschmitt BF-110 G-2.

The Bf 110 was one of the most versatile and mostly produced 2-engine combat aircraft of the German Air Force during World War II. Predominantly used as a fighter bomber, it was also particularly successful as a night fighter, as it had been designed from the beginning as a twin-engine fighter with two man crew and long range. In 1942, a new series was created, the Bf 110 G, with new and more powerful DB 605 engines. Due to delivery difficulties with the engines, there were delays in production. When the series finally started in November 1942, it received the name G-2. With the G-4 versions intended for the night fighters, extensive tests were carried out, including new weapon systems, such as the WT 151 tank under the fuselage, or the WGr21 rockets (WGr. throwing grenade) under the wings, which were then also installed on the G-2. In this configuration, the Bf 110 was used as a pulk destroyer against the American bomber associations in the Reich defense.
