Eduard 82162 Bf 109G-14/AS 1/48 – plastic model kit

The Eduard 82162 Bf 109G-14/AS 1/48 set is an excellent choice for modelers and historical aviation enthusiasts, especially fans of German World War II fighters. This model represents one of the most famous Luftwaffe fighter planes, the Bf 109G-14 in the AS version, produced from mid-1944. This aircraft was widely used by Germany in aerial combat over Western Europe and the Eastern Front, and was a development of earlier Bf 109 versions, distinguished by the use of the high-altitude Daimler-Benz DB 605AS engine, improved aerodynamics, and better high-altitude performance.

The Bf 109G-14/AS fighter fought on many fronts from mid-1944 until Germany’s surrender in May 1945, forming the backbone of the Jagdwaffe fighter units. In this very version, the Luftwaffe tried to oppose the Allied strategic bombers and their escort fighters with greater effectiveness. Examples of units equipped with this type include JG 1, JG 3, and JG 27.
