Known as the Stormbirdrsquo; the attack version included hard points for two 500kg bombs under the nose of the aircraft, with its speed making it almost invulnerable from Allied air interception.

Review: Husband loved it - Lots of parts and challenge to put together but a great gift for the model builders Review: 爆撃機型A-2aを再現 - 先にリリースされた戦闘機型のA-1aのバリエーションで、新規の爆弾と爆弾架を追加して、爆撃機型のA-2aを再現できるキットですが、実質的にはA-1aとA-2aのコンパチキットです。 1/72スケールのMe262としては最新に属するキットなので出来は良く、プロポーションは良好ですがディテールは今ひとつで、エンジンポッドは昔のキットでも再現されている様なディテールまで省略されています。 パーツの嵌合は良好なので、組み立ては問題ないでしょう。 デカールは上質なカルトグラフ製ですが、エアフィックスの常で、ハーケンクロイツは省略されているので別途調達が必要です。 近年のキットにしては甘い箇所も散見されますが、制作に値する良いキットには違いないでしょう。 ## Features - Precise, Accurate and Highly Detailed Airfix Model Kit - 1: 72 Scale - Skill Level: 2 (where 1 is for the beginner and 4 is for the more experienced modeller) - Number of parts: 65 - Dimensions (mm): L148 x W174 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07N87PRBP | | Additional Features | most advanced aircraft of WWII, classic kit with simpler and faster construction | | Age Range Description | Children, Teenager, Adult | | Age range (description) | Children, Teenager, Adult | | Art Craft Kit Type | model building | | Brand | Airfix | | Brand Name | Airfix | | Color | Multi Colour | | Colour | Multi Colour | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 113 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 05055286660986 | | Included Components | Model, Instructions | | Item Dimensions | 30.5 x 17.8 x 5.1 centimeters | | Item Type Name | Model | | Item Weight | 0.1 Kilograms | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 30.5 x 17.8 x 5.1 centimeters | | Manufacturer | Airfix | | Manufacturer Part Number | A03090 | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Name | Messerschmitt ME262A-2A1: 72 Scale | | Model Number | A03090 | | Number of Pieces | 65 | | Paint Type | Oil | | Product Style | Classic | | Scale | 1:72 | | Seasons | All Seasons | | Size | 1: 72 Scale | | Subject Character | Aircraft | | Target Audience | Boys, Men, Women | | Theme | Aircraft | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Limited Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Airfix - **Age range (description):** Children, Teenager, Adult - **Colour:** Multi Colour - **Theme:** Aircraft - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 30.5 x 17.8 x 5.1 centimeters ## Images ![Airfix Messerschmitt ME262A-2A1: 72 Scale - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71bBWGu5s3L.jpg) ![Airfix Messerschmitt ME262A-2A1: 72 Scale - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/510CAcW4wFL.jpg) ![Airfix Messerschmitt ME262A-2A1: 72 Scale - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/519-jRtJdyL.jpg) ![Airfix Messerschmitt ME262A-2A1: 72 Scale - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51OP6kdLcML.jpg) ![Airfix Messerschmitt ME262A-2A1: 72 Scale - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51GJqIinomL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Husband loved it *by K***K on 5 December 2024* Lots of parts and challenge to put together but a great gift for the model builders ### ⭐⭐⭐ 爆撃機型A-2aを再現 *by A***ー on 6 January 2023* 先にリリースされた戦闘機型のA-1aのバリエーションで、新規の爆弾と爆弾架を追加して、爆撃機型のA-2aを再現できるキットですが、実質的にはA-1aとA-2aのコンパチキットです。 1/72スケールのMe262としては最新に属するキットなので出来は良く、プロポーションは良好ですがディテールは今ひとつで、エンジンポッドは昔のキットでも再現されている様なディテールまで省略されています。 パーツの嵌合は良好なので、組み立ては問題ないでしょう。 デカールは上質なカルトグラフ製ですが、エアフィックスの常で、ハーケンクロイツは省略されているので別途調達が必要です。 近年のキットにしては甘い箇所も散見されますが、制作に値する良いキットには違いないでしょう。 ### ⭐ Pieza del cristal de la cabina de otro modelo, incompatible *by P***O on 15 July 2022* Todo estaba bien, y estaba contento con la maqueta. Hasta que en los ultimos pasos montando el cristal de la cabina me di cuenta de que las piezas no encajaban para nada, mirando un poco me di cuenta de que me mandaron las piezas correspondientes al me262B-1a y no del me 262A las piezas son incompatibles y quedaria como una chapuza. No recomendado si necesitas suerte para que te vengan las piezas correctas. ## Frequently Bought Together - Airfix Messerschmitt ME262A-2A Airplane 1:72 WWII Military Aviation Plastic Model Kit A03090 - Airfix Model Airplane Kit Gift Set - A03087A Junkers Ju87B-1 Stuka, Plastic Plane Model Kits for Adults & Kids 14+, Skill Level 2, 1:72 Scale WW2 Military Aircraft Models - Real Aeroplane Models - Airfix A01071B Supermarine Spitfire Mkia 1:72 Model Building Kit (36 Piece), Multicolor --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/277815834-airfix-messerschmitt-me262a-2a1-72-scale](https://www.desertcart.at/products/277815834-airfix-messerschmitt-me262a-2a1-72-scale) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-11-15*
