Tamiya 89586 1/48 Scale Ta183A Huckebein Overview

The Tamiya 89586 1/48 scale Ta183A Huckebein kit captures the aesthetic of Kurt Tank's jet proposal with clean panel lines and a well-appointed cockpit. It is aimed at builders who enjoy careful assembly and painting to highlight subtle aerodynamic shapes.

Why the Ta183A Matters to Modellers

Planned as a high-speed fighter with gun armament, the Ta183A's conceptual layout influenced later jet designs despite not entering service. This kit provides a compact example for display, study, and finishing technique practice.
