Tamiya 1/48 Fieseler Fi-156c Storch Model Kit

The Fieseler Fi 156C Storch (Stork) was Germany's extraordinary STOL liaison and observation aircraft, capable of taking off in 65 meters and landing in just 20. Its automatic leading-edge slats and massive flaps gave it helicopter-like slow-flight capability. The Storch performed the daring rescue of Mussolini from Gran Sasso and served as a frontline liaison and casualty evacuation aircraft on every front. Tamiya's 1/48 kit features the extensive glazing, high-lift devices, and detailed Argus engine.
