Hobby Boss 1/35 Fieseler Fi-156 A-0/C-1 Storch: Signature Reconnaissance Aircraft in Scale

The Hobby Boss 1/35 Fieseler Fi-156 A-0/C-1 Storch plastic kit recreates an aircraft famed for its STOL performance and reconnaissance role. This scale model highlights the Storch's high wing and extended landing gear that enabled operations from short, rough strips during the war.

Historical Note and Modelling Interest

The Fi-156 earned a reputation for handling in restricted terrain and for observation tasks. Model makers will find the kit useful for exploring those design features, as the moulded parts reflect the aircrafts distinctive silhouette and structural traits.

Building and Finishing Tips

Expect a build that rewards accuracy. Parts require careful trimming and alignment; painting and weathering will enhance the finished appearance and bring out the panel and surface detail typical of WWII subjects.
