Staffelkapitan of 2./JG 2, Triqueville, France, 1943 - Boasting an elaborate eagleÌÎå«ÌÎ_ëíÌÎå«Ì´åås head marking designed to hide soot deposits from the Fw 190ÌÎå«ÌÎ_ëíÌÎå«Ì´åås BMW radial engine which collected behind the fighterÌÎå«ÌÎ_ëíÌÎå«Ì´åås exhaust louvres, this aircraft was flown by 98-victory ace Horst Hannig. He claimed 90 of his victories with 6./JG 54 on the eastern front between the autumn of 1941 and early 1943. Awarded the KnightÌÎå«ÌÎ_ëíÌÎå«Ì´åås Cross on May 9, 1942, Hannig became Staffelkapitan of 2./JG 2 in February 1943. He had downed eight aircraft in the west (including one four-engined bomber) by the time he was shot down and killed during a clash with 40 RAF Spitfires near Rocquancourt on May 15, 1943. Critically wounded, he had baled out of his fighter, only for his parachute to fail. Hannig, who was just 22 when he was killed, was posthumously awarded Oak Leaves in January 1944.

    A wonderful metal airplane. Excellent detail. I have bought two of these. A friend accidently broke the propeller of the first one.
