1/48 Henschel HS 123 from Italeri - Classic Biplane Kit

The Italeri 1/48 scale Henschel HS 123 captures a compact but powerful 1930s ground attack biplane. Historically used by the Condor Legion during the Spanish Civil War, the HS 123 featured an 880 hp BMW radial engine and could reach speeds around 340 km/h, reflecting its contemporary performance.

Though later fighters took precedence in WWII, the HS 123 still served on the Eastern Front in specialised roles, including night ground strikes. The kit reflects the aircrafts durable construction and is designed to provide a pleasant assembly for anyone building period military aircraft.

Workshop-friendly build and display

This Italeri kit suits modellers who enjoy accurate 1/48 scale builds. The parts layout emphasises the HS 123s form and offers a clean build sequence, resulting in a model that stands well in a collection or on display shelving.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included, recommended for authentic finish
Basic modelling tools such as sprue cutters, a hobby knife and fine files will cover most needs. Tweezers and fine brushes help with small parts and decal placement.
The kit includes decals intended to replicate period markings shown on the instructions and box art, suitable for an authentic display model.
Instructions provide a clear sequence, though careful trimming and dry-fitting are recommended for best results due to the biplanes fine components.
