About the Design

Even as the Horten Brothers were starting construction on their Ho-229A-1 flying wing, plans were underway for more advanced -- and lethal -- variations on their tailless aircraft.  One of these was the V-7, which incorporated the advanced radar systems that were only then being installed on Luftwaffe fighters.  No V-7's ever made it to the production line.

About the Kit

This 1/72nd scale model by Turkey's PM company was actually one of the first Horton flying wing kits to reach the American market. 

This model was built from an original issue.
