Italeri have published on their official website a lot of pictures with their latest release in 1:48 scale – a famous Stuka dive bomber in the D-5 variant.
Ju 87 D-5 Stuka

Catalogue number: 2709
Scale: 1/48
Skill: 4
Model Dim.: 22,9 cm
Box Dim.: 344 x 242 x 58 mm
Painting schemes: four – three German (including one of Rudels plane) and one Hungarian.

As you see on the attached pictures, found on producer website, the kit will be a multi-media one as it includes some photo-etched parts – a single fret with additional armour, instrument panel, seat-belts or gun-sights.

Another interesting feature of the kit is engine which can be hidden under the cowling or exposed without need of cutting the fuselage. Of course it will still require some extra care and adding cables, wires and fuel pipes. Flaps and ailerons are made as consolidated with the main wings. Glassing for the cockpit is made as sliced into four separate parts.

You can find this product on the Italeri website.

Please remember, when contacting retailers or manufacturers, to mention that you saw their products highlighted here - on AEROSCALE.

Thanks Michal Great review, Any chance of a larger picture of the paint schemes. Why you ask??? I'm working on the Academy Kit and don't want to do Rudels a/c but rather one of others looks promising. Cheers Chris

Hi Chris, this is not review but just humble news report. I can't provide any better picture of the markings yet as all I have was taken from the Italeri website. We will most probably have to wait untill someone get the kit. Here's their original picture without any modification or resize.
