Special Hobby 72409 Arado Ar 96B "Captured Post War" 1/72 – plastic aircraft model kit

The Special Hobby 72409 Arado Ar 96B "Captured Post War" in 1/72 scale is a faithful replica of a German WWII trainer aircraft, produced by the renowned manufacturer Special Hobby. This product is particularly interesting for military aviation enthusiasts and collectors keen on unusual variants of aircraft used after the war.

The Arado Ar 96 was the primary Luftwaffe trainer aircraft, widely used in Germany between 1939-1945 as well as by other Axis countries. After WWII, some units were taken over by the armies of the victorious states, and also used in Czechoslovakia, France, Poland, and other countries for advanced pilot training and communication roles. Examples of such aircraft could be seen in Czechoslovak and Polish air forces long after the war, which is reflected in this kit thanks to unique decals with post-war markings.
