Description

The Focke-Wulf 1000x1000x1000, also known as Focke-Wulf 239 was a twin jet bomber designed for the Luftwaffe by the Focke-Wulf aircraft manufacturing company during the last years of the Third Reich.

Their designation meant that this series of bombers would be able to carry a bomb that weighed 1000 kg for a distance of 1000 km at a speed of 1000 km/h.

Focke-Wulf produced three different designs for the project that would have been powered by two Heinkel HeS 011 turbojet engines. The innovative-looking series of jet bombers was designed by H. von Halem and D. Küchemann.

The project was cancelled because of the German surrender in 1945. Our what if 1/30 scale model shows what a superlative design the bomber could have been had the project bore fruition.

The price for this hand carved Mahogany wood model is $799 plus postage which is included in the banner price. The figures and accessories are shown for scale comparison purpose only and are not included.
