This is the ultimate plastic model kit for the MESSERSCHMITT Me 262B-1a/U1.   This jet fighter/bomber was employed by the German Luftwaffe toward the end of WWII and it was the first jet aircraft in the world to see active service.  This Hasegawa kit No. CH-005 in 1/32 scale containes metal parts, photo etched stainless parts and rubber parts, all to help give the ultimate in realism to a completed model.  I got this kit at the IPMS Convention in Washington, D.C. in 1987.  It is in perfect MINT condition.  The kit may be combined with any other of my listings for savings in shipping.  Perhaps Hasegawa kit CH003 of the Fw 190D, a 1/32 scale mate in the Collectors' Hi-Grade Series?
