Historical information: The FuG 202 Lichtenstein B/C radar was one of the first airborne target detection systems in military history. Introduced into service in early 1942, it dramatically increased the effectiveness of German night-time air defense. It allowed Luftwaffe crews to detect and intercept Allied bombers at night, despite limited visibility. Its characteristic antennas – the so-called "matresses" or dipole arrays – became an iconic silhouette feature of Luftwaffe night fighters.

Product advantages: Thanks to 3D printing technology, the details are extremely precise, distortion resistant, and accurately reproduce even the finest elements of the original antennas. Modelers will appreciate the ease of assembly and the significant boost in authenticity provided to their models.

Recommendation: The Omask 104801 set is recommended both for advanced and intermediate modelers (difficulty level 3/5). It is ideal for enthusiasts building 1/48 scale replicas of Luftwaffe night fighters—anywhere historical accuracy and superb detailing matter. A must-have if you want your model to stand out on a diorama or at modeling competitions.
