Overview of the Henschel HS 126 A-1/B-1 Scale Kit

The Italeri 2701S in 1/48 scale models the Henschel HS 126 A-1/B-1, highlighting the plane's elevated wing, prominent three-blade propeller and fixed gear layout. The kit components are arranged to reflect the aircraft's structural character and profile.

Service and Role

Introduced in 1937, the HS 126 was powered by the 850hp Bramo 323 radial engine in operational units. Built for reconnaissance, it carried twin onboard cameras and defensive machine guns. It remained in service through early wartime campaigns, including use with the Condor Legion.

Modelling Highlights

The Italeri 2701S is geared toward hobbyists who appreciate historical subjects. The parts enable recreation of cockpit and airframe lines, making it a rewarding project for collectors concentrating on reconnaissance types.
