The Ta 152 was the best piston engined fighter of WW2, but sadly did not see mainstream prodution. Designed by Kurt Tank of Focke Wulf, this was a thoroughbred of the Fw 190D-9 fighter
The C-1 version was the most heavily armed variant.
I am now building this aircraft, this is by Hobbyboss and in 1/48. Fit is generally good and the cockpit is shaping up rather nicely. However, they should had provided more sidewall detail, but the eduard PE supplied some. The Main control stick is yet to go on.
Criticism is welcome
I didn't superdetail it as the cockpit is very enclosed.
The same is for the half engine plug
Cheers, John
