1:48 ICM 48268 Heinkel He 111 - Captured Heinkel - Luftwaffe in USAAF Service - Propeller Aircraft Plastic Model kit

Bring a remarkable piece of aviation history to your modeling bench with the 1:48 ICM Heinkel He 111 - Captured Heinkel – a truly unique plastic model kit depicting a German aircraft in American hands. This model represents an extraordinary He 111H-20, originally built as a Luftwaffe transport aircraft and later flown by the USAAF.

This particular aircraft was produced in 1944 and captured by American forces near the end of World War II. Pilots from the 56th Fighter Group USAAF painted it in their signature deep purple and, in a daring move, flew it—without official approval—to the British airbase at North Weald. Their bold decision ensured the aircraft’s survival. It later appeared at the RAE Farnborough exhibition and now rests permanently at the Royal Air Force Museum in London.
