Hobby Boss 1/48 Me 262 B-1a/CS-92: Detailed historic subject

The Hobby Boss 1/48 Me 262 B-1a/CS-92 kit provides a practical way to model a pivotal World War II jet fighter. Recognised as the first operational jet fighter, the Me 262 changed aerial tactics, and this kit reflects that significance through scaled detail and accurate shapes.

Why modellers pick this kit

The aircraft's twin jet nacelles and swept wings are faithfully represented, giving builders an opportunity to highlight the Me 262's design cues. Components show crisp moulding that supports close-scale assembly and realistic surface finish.

Construction notes and display ideas

Geared toward intermediate to advanced hobbyists, the build rewards careful fitting and finishing. Once painted and decaled, the model makes an eye-catching exhibit whether shown solo or within a themed collection.

Yes, the kit accepts common aftermarket upgrades such as resin cockpit sets or finer wheels, but check fitment notes before purchasing extras.
The cockpit includes basic instrument and seat detail suitable for painting and drybrushing; advanced builders may choose aftermarket parts for extra fidelity.
Apply decals on a smooth, glossy surface and use setting solutions sparingly. Test placement on a scrap before final application to ensure proper alignment.
