Meng 1/32 Me 163B-1a as RAF VF241

By Jeroen Peters

Here's my finished Me 163B-1a in RAF colors, based on these references:

In reality this particular captured example had its MK108 cannons removed and also its rocket engine. However: at what point this happened isn't to be found. This plane was being towed and tested as a glider.

I used the Hasegawa Eduard PE set to spice things up. As all these parts seem to fit this kit really well, I can really recommend it.

Also used the Master models pitot tube and added some missing details.
