Yep, really looking forward to building the Uhu. Really interesting Aircraft, as it featured the first ejection seat and was arguably the best Nightfighter of the war

The nose weight included really fascinates me. When you built it, how did it fit?

It went in fine John, the engineering of the kit is typical Tamiya quality. I've racked my memory to think of any dodgy areas, but apart from the fiddly radar antennae, I can't think of any!

Just got a 1:48 Hobbyboss Me 262A-1a/U3. I can't wait to build it as it looks fantastic. Like the Tamiya Uhu, it has a nose weight and a full Gunbay
