Revell 03913 Heinkel He-177A-5 Greif 1/72 is an advanced plastic model kit, faithfully replicating the German heavy bomber from World War II. The specially designed 1:72 scale set consists of as many as 234 detailed parts, allowing for an extremely realistic final effect. Once assembled, the model is highly impressive – the fuselage length is 303 mm, and the wingspan is a remarkable 432 mm, reflecting the imposing size of the original aircraft.

The Heinkel He 177A-5 Greif ("Vulture") was one of the most powerful bomber aircraft of the Luftwaffe during World War II. Its design was intended for long-range strategic missions enabling the delivery of heavy bomb loads over considerable distances. The aircraft debuted in 1942 and was actively used in raids on Allied strategic targets, especially on the Eastern Front and during operations over the Baltic Sea and Soviet territory. Although it struggled with engineering issues related to the propulsion system, the Greif was a key element of the Third Reich’s aerial offensive up until the end of the conflict in 1945.

The Revell kit, made of high-quality plastic, is characterized by precise reproduction of construction details – cockpit interior, gunner positions, the distinctive under-fuselage gondola, and specially designed engines corresponding to real technological solutions from the 1940s. The model does not include accessories such as glue or paints, allowing you to individually select products that best meet your modeling expectations. The possibility of displaying the model in take-off configuration or with landing gear extended increases its exhibit appeal.
