IBG 72U051 Propeller for Fw 190D-9 1/72 – precision propeller for the German WWII fighter aircraft

The accessory set IBG 72U051 Propeller for Fw 190D-9 1/72 is a high-quality plastic propeller designed for models of the legendary German fighter aircraft Focke-Wulf Fw 190D-9, used by the Luftwaffe at the end of World War II (years 1944-1945). The propeller is made in 1/72 scale, making it an ideal replacement or addition to plastic models from various manufacturers, allowing model enthusiasts to more faithfully reproduce historical details.

The Focke-Wulf Fw 190D-9 is one of the most recognizable Luftwaffe aircraft, which made its combat debut on both the Eastern and Western fronts in the final phase of the conflict. Known as the "Dora", it was distinguished by its lengthened fuselage and new, more powerful Jumo 213A engine, which also necessitated the use of a new three-blade propeller. Historically, the Fw 190D-9 participated, among others, in Reich defense operations and ground support, becoming one of the last German piston-engine fighters used in combat.
