THE KIT

The He-111 first appeared in 1/48 scale in the early 1990s, released by Monogram from molds purchased from Hobbycraft. The model was a mishmash of sub-types, and could be built as an H-3 or H-6 with detail parts made by Bill Koster. A final release was the He-111H-20 carrying a V-1 buzz bomb. The kits are still available from dealers on eBay.

ICM first released a modern kit of the He-111H in 2016, that being the H-3 sub-type used in the Battle of Britain. The He-111H-6 came out in 2018, and was re-released in 2019 with the option of mounting torpedoes.

The kit is highly-detailed, with complete Jumo-211 engines that can be displayed without the cowlings. This provides an opportunity for a servicing diorama. The interior is fully detailed. The parts to do the He-111H-3 are also included. Decals provide markings for four aircraft used in North Africa, with one being a torpedo bomber used by KG 26 based in Sicily.
