The \"C\" version was designed as an advanced development of the proven Me 163B, intended to feature a more powerful engine and improved aerodynamics. Due to Germany's capitulation, no units were actually used in combat – hence the popularity of the “What-If-War” theme, which assumes hypothetical deployment of this machine in battle.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe \u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Hobby 72263\u003c\/strong\u003e kit offers precisely recreated fuselage, wings, and cockpit details.
