We are pleased to announce thatour10th anniversary celebration release models, 32045 Gotha G.1 & 32053 Gotha UWD (our 68th and 69th releases) are now available for pre-order from shop.wingnutwings.com with shipping hopefully from late April or early May 2019.

32045 1/32 Gotha G.1 US$ 199
The extraordinary Gotha G.1 design of 1915 was the first in a line of famous twin engine bombers built by Gotha in the First World War. The high position of the partially armour plated fuselage offered great visibility and effective fire positions for the gunner(s) but very little protection to the 3 man crew in the event of a nose over crash. The G.1 was initially conceived as a heavily armed fighter but was very quickly re-assigned to bombing duties and began the famous association of Gotha with First World War bombers.
-349 high-quality injection moulded plastic parts.
-9 photo-etched metal detail parts.
-2x Benz 150hp Bz.III engines.
-63cm wingspan.
-20kg & 50kgCarbinit bombs, optional propellers, lMG 08 ‘Spandau’, LMG 14 ‘Parabellum’ & 2cm Beckercanon armament and mountings.
-20kgCarbonit bomb dropping cage or underwing fairing.
-28 page fully illustrated instruction manual.
-High-quality Cartograf decals included for 5 colour schemes;
A = Gotha G.1 10/15, Fliegerersatz Abteilung 7 Sonderstaffel S.1, 1915
B = Gotha G.1 11/15, Fliegerersatz Abteilung 7 Sonderstaffel S.1, 1915 & 1916
C = Gotha G.1 13/15, Feld Fliegerabteilung 37, 1915
D = Gotha G.1 41/15, Kagohl 1, 1915
E = Gotha G.1 42/15 “Feodora”, Fliegerersatz Abteilung 3?, 1916
32053 1/32 Gotha UWD US$ 199
The unique Gotha UWD was one of several differenttwin engine seaplanes ordered by the German Navy to fit their requirements for a long range reconnaissance and torpedo carrying aircraft (although there is no evidence to suggest it was ever armed with a torpedo). The Gotha UWD was developed from the G.1 land plane and was completed in December 1915. It was described as easy to fly, able to take to the air with ease and was smooth on landing. In a preview of things to come, Gotha UWD 120 was used to bomb England during early 1916.
-274 high-quality injection moulded plastic parts.
-4 photo-etched metal detail parts.
-2x Daimler-Mercedes 160hp D.III engines.
-63cm wingspan.
-10kgCarbonit bombs & bomb dropping ‘proboscis’, counter rotating propellers and optional map & document case and camera.
-24 page fully illustrated instruction manual.
-High quality Cartograf decals for modified Gotha UWD 120 which served with See Flieger Abteilung 1 from march 1916.
