A detailed model kit based on impressions of the 'flying saucer' craft which formed one of many fanciful projects created by German rocket scientists before and during World War 2. While some projects were successful others were less practical, or perhaps beyond the limits of technology. The flying saucer project has long been a favourite with sci-fi and fantasy history fans.
"Work began on this spherical aircraft in 1934 with airworthy prototypes of the Haunebu II capable of speeds of up to 6000 km/h said to have first flown in mid - 1943, but testing was cut short as the tide of war turned against Germany and they mysteriously disappeared as the war came to an end, supposedly captured for detailed investigation by advancing US and Russian forces."
Revell’s detailed model of the proposed German flying saucer air/space craft features fine surface detail, interior with instrument panels, seats & Vril anti-gravity drive. Armament includes six heavy cannons in twin revolving mounts and the three-leg undercarriage can be modelled deployed or retracted.
