New model in development (hopefully for release later in 2018)
32049 1/32 Halberstadt Cl.II US$ TBC
The Halberstadt Cl.II was a highly successful two seat escort fighter and infantry support aircraft that entered service from late July 1917. It was very well regarded for it's good visibility, climb rate, maneuverability, stability and ease of internal communication afforded by the close nature of the pilot and gunner. Depending on operational requirements the Halberstadt Cl.II could carry various models of camera and wireless equipment as well as small bombs. About 900 Halberstadt Cl.II were produced and despite being superseded by the even lighter Halberstadt Cl.IV introduced in the middle of 1918, the Cl.II soldiered on to the Armistice and saw post war service with Poland.
