1/32 Hs-123 recommended for ICM

The Henschel Hs-123 was a German single-seat biplane designed for the role of close support of ground troops and light bombing. It first flew in 1935 and became one of the last biplanes deployed by the Luftwaffe in operational service. Although it was considered to be structurally outdated at the time of its introduction, it proved itself due to its ruggedness, ease of maintenance and ability to operate from improvised field airfields. The Hs-123 saw active combat in Spain during the Civil War, in Poland in 1939, and later on the Eastern Front, where it served until 1944. For modellers, it represents an interesting type from the transitional period of aviation - a machine that combined interwar construction with real combat deployment in modern conflict.

The Yahu Models kit includes pre-painted etched instrument panels and additional cockpit features designed specifically for the 1:32 scale ICM kit. The etched parts replace the standard plastic components and add significantly finer detail - instrument dials, controls and panel structure. Pre-painting makes the job easier and reduces the time it takes to complete the interior, while maintaining the historical accuracy of the colour scheme typical of German cockpits of the WWII era. Installation requires careful separation of the parts from the etched frame, bending as required and adhering with a suitable adhesive (cyanoacrylate or special metal adhesive is recommended).
