BF 109 K-4 Messerschmitt Model Kit

The Messerschmitt Bf 109 is one of the most recognizable fighter aircraft of World War II and an enduring symbol of the German Luftwaffe. Throughout the war, the design was continually refined with more powerful engines and heavier armament to meet the challenge of increasingly advanced Allied fighters. The Bf 109 K-4 “Kurfürst,” introduced in late 1944, represented the final and most advanced production variant of this legendary aircraft.

Based on the earlier G series, the K-4 was powered by a formidable 2,000-horsepower Daimler-Benz DB 605 supercharged engine, allowing it to reach speeds in excess of 720 km/h. It was also renowned for its exceptional rate of climb, surpassing many contemporary Allied fighters. Its heavy armament included a devastating 30 mm MK 108 cannon firing through the propeller hub, complemented by two 13 mm MG 131 machine guns mounted on the engine cowling.

This detailed model kit builds into an impressive replica measuring approximately 7.25 inches in length with an 8-inch wingspan. It includes decals for four distinct paint schemes, allowing modelers to customize their build. A full-color instruction sheet guides assembly, making this kit suitable for intermediate builders.
