| My Hungarian He 170A Hi guys, this is my Heinkel He 170A of the Royal Hungarian Air Force (RHAF). I was going to build the He 70F-2, the one that was used in Spain, but I opted for this one.  It served with a Reconnaissance Unit during 1942, but replaced by more modern designs.  P.S: Was it true that the He 70/170/270 was vulnerable to ground fire because the metal used to produce it was light and flimsy and it would break up? I can't remember where I saw that, but I think its true. Last edited by Le Stuka; 12-04-2006 at 12:39 PM. |

 | Revell you said? thanks for the info cos I never had this model and would like to find it. Rather than using decals for hungarian colors on the tail, you could have painted the stripes using masking tape. Guess it would look a little more realistic.

| No wonder Vince.It is not easy to find this model.As I remember I've seen the one at my mate's shop for modellers once only.It was two years ago.It seems that isn't a popular kit.
