The Messerschmitt Bf109 formed the backbone of the Luftwaffe throughout the entire duration of WWII and in fact the Bf109 holds the distinction of being the most-produced fighter in history. Nearly 34,000 examples were built up till April 1945. A range of variants was developed during the war, with the E series being the first major redesign of this highly successful aircraft that wrought havoc on Allied and Russian opponents. The features that distinguished the E ("Emil") model included a more powerful Daimler-Benz DB 601 engine and two heavier MG FF cannons. The E-7 version saw combat at the end of August 1940, and it distinguished itself as being the first type capable of carrying a drop tank, usually a 300-liter unit mounted under the fuselage centerline. This basically doubled its range to 1,325km. Some 438 E-7 fighters were produced and they could also carry bombs for the fighter-bomber role.

The Bf109E-7 is the fighter sub-type represented in new 1/32 scale Wing-Tech kit. What's more, the kit depicts a tropicalized version, with a special filter in front of the supercharger intake. This kit is simply stunning, which is to be expected from a Wing-Tech kit. Careful engineering has resulted in precise detail and easy assembly for modelers of all skill levels. Every detail is accurately presented in plastic, while some intricate parts such as the pilot's seatbelt and engine intake filters are offered as photo-etched items for superior realism. DS is also used for the landing-gear compartment in order to provide the necessary level of detail. To keep modelers, a variety of marking options are available in the form of high-quality Cartograf decals for the tropical theater. This fine kit of an iconic German fighter, fueled up for a long-range mission over North Africa or the Mediterranean, is just bursting to get out of the box and take to the air!
