Corgi Junkers Ju 87B-1 Stuka Alfons Orthofer 1/72 AA32515

Description

This Corgi Aviation Archive 1:72 scale model represents Junkers Ju 87B-1 Stuka S2+AC, flown by Major Alfons Orthofer of Stab II./StG 77 while based at Breslau, Germany, in 1939.

The aircraft was specially decorated with a dramatic shark-mouth design for an article in the German magazine Signal. These unusual markings distinguish it from the more familiar early-war Stuka colour schemes.

The model features the Ju 87's distinctive inverted gull wings and fixed undercarriage, along with detailed dive brakes, a centre-line bomb mounted on its swinging crutch, crew figures, and a rear gun position. Limited to only 1,400 examples worldwide, it is an attractive and relatively scarce Corgi release.
