Bring a fascinating piece of German aviation history from the Second World War to life with the IBG Models 72593 Fieseler Fi 156C-2 Storch At War! This plastic model kit in 1:72 scale represents the famous German liaison and reconnaissance aircraft, renowned for its exceptionally short take-off and landing distances. With its distinctive high-mounted wings, unusual undercarriage and recognisable cabin, the Fieseler Storch makes a remarkable addition to any collection of historical military aircraft. Thanks to its unique design and versatility, this light aircraft became one of the most recognisable German support aircraft of the Second World War.

The Fieseler Fi 156C-2 Storch was developed for military reconnaissance and liaison duties where conventional airfields were not always available. Thanks to its large wing area, specialised high-lift devices and powerful Argus As 10 engine, the aircraft could fly at extremely low speeds and take off or land over exceptionally short distances. This made the Storch particularly suitable for operating from small grass fields, improvised landing strips and remote locations close to the front line. During the Second World War, the aircraft was used by the Luftwaffe for a wide variety of duties, including reconnaissance, artillery observation, communications and military personnel transport.

With this IBG Models kit, you can build a distinctive German military aircraft that played an important supporting role across several theatres of war. The Fieseler Storch operated on the Eastern and Western Fronts, in North Africa and throughout the Mediterranean region. Its remarkable flying characteristics allowed it to maintain communications and transport personnel to and from remote locations under challenging conditions. Position the completed model on an improvised grass airstrip, beside a military command post or in a diorama featuring German ground troops and airfield equipment. Thanks to its recognisable silhouette and unusual construction, the Storch offers plenty of opportunities to create an atmospheric and historically convincing modelling scene.
