Airfix has released images of the test sprue images as well as details for the two marking options for their forthcoming release of the 1/72 scale Messerschmitt Me 262 B-1a/U1 Nightfighter and Avia CS-92
”As there are some significant differences between the Messerschmitt Me 262A-1A single seat fighter version of the first release and this two seat trainer version, A04062 introduces a completely new component frame to the kit, along with additional clear parts for the three section elongated canopy. In an exclusive first look for Workbench readers, we are pleased to bring you pictures of the test sprue components of the new kit, both as the complete set and with the new component frames individually presented. This important development highlights the fact that this handsome new kit is advancing nicely towards its currently scheduled October release date.”
