This Junker Engine was the powerplant of the first generation
of turbo-jet aircraft, the Me 262.
We have designed an accurate 1/32 scale
kit of this historic engine. Detailed parts include
the aggregate, pumps, different oil tanks, etc.
When complete the engine measures approximately
5 inches/12cm long, and looks like a roaring metal-cigar!
We have designed this kit to make the assembly
as easy as possible, but this kit is not for the beginner.
The illustrated instruction
sheet contains perspective drawings and scaled views of the engine.
The metalized painting suggests actual construction
materials, from the shiny aluminium of the compressor to the burnt-metal
of the exhaust.
Accessories from 1/12 or 1/24 cars can be
used to add additionnal detail to the engine.
You may wish to add such details as hydaulic
nuts & bolts, radiator hose, tin and lead wires, etc.
The model is suitable for use with the Hesagawa
or the Revell injection-molded Me262 kit, and you may choose to either
install the engine completely or display the engine resting on its trailer;
an engineer figure is provided.
The kit price is US$40. Available now.

assembled, with the engineer and trailer, also included. This photo does
not show the completed kit.
