Discover the legendary Silbervogel, a visionary space plane concept developed by Germany during World War II, now brought to life in this detailed model kit by Takom. Originally designed as a lifting body aircraft with the ambitious goal of bombing any location on Earth through ballistic flight, the Silbervogel's development was halted due to unrealistic assumptions about its structure and operation. Despite never reaching production, the innovative ideas behind the Silbervogel influenced post-war technology in both the U.S. and the Soviet Union, paving the way for advancements in supersonic and gliding missile technology.

This crafted model kit not only pays homage to the Silbervogel's historical significance but also offers model enthusiasts a unique piece of aviation history. The kit includes a Hanomarg SS1100 tractor, providing a glimpse into the support vehicles that would have been part of the Silbervogel's operations. Additionally, builders can choose from two types of bombs and two trailers, allowing for various configurations and display options.

For added customization, the kit features two types of nose parts, catering to preferences for either a single-seat or double-seat cockpit. Clear parts enhance the model's realism, inviting closer inspection of the intricate details that make this aircraft so fascinating. To complete the look, decals for seven different versions are included, offering a range of historical and hypothetical liveries.
