Operation Barbarossa, the German invasion of the Soviet Union, was the most titanic clash of arms in all of history. The forces arrayed on each side numbered in the millions. The territory captured stretched from the Polish border to the doorstep of Moscow. Everywhere, the Luftwaffe roared overhead. The losses inflicted by the Bf 109 and its compatriots gave Germany total tactical air superiority and very nearly handed Hitler a victory in Russia. Kit features two sets of decals for 1941.

Luftwaffe 7./JG54 Lt. Max-Hellmuth Osterman "White-2" Fall 1941

Volkswagen introduced the Type 2 Delivery Van in 1950, and it was a trend-setter from the very start. Imitators came and went over the years, but the Type 2 remains an automotive icon to this day. In the U.S., it is most remembered as a favorite transport of the counterculture movement during the 1960s and 1970s. Models from this era continue to be popular with aficionados, who've affectionately nicknamed them "vee-dubs" and "hippie-mobiles." This limited edition kit features a special wraparound decal with three Hasegawa egg plane girls.
Decal Option:
Special wrapping car of three Hasegawa Egg Plane Girls

At WWII's end, several of Japan's aircraft were repainted with a green cross as a sign of surrender. Many planes, including select Ki-46-IIs, transported Japanese diplomats to work out the terms of surrender in September of 1945. This Ki-46-II retains the IJAAF roundel. Many historians believe this was unintentional. The Ki-46-II shown here took delegates from Rabaul to the Royal New Zealand Air Force field in Jacquinot Bay.

Former IJAAF 10th FR, Rabaul detachment, Green Cross, September 1945

1989 marked the beginning of an exciting new era for Grand Prix motorcycle racing. That year, John Kocinski started to race in 500 cc competitions, in addition to 250 cc contests. For the '89 season, Kocinski raced a Yamaha YZR500 for Kenny Roberts' team. He finished in 35th place. The following year, Kocinski switched back to racing 250 cc bikes exclusively. The switch paid off; he placed first, scoring 223 points.

In World War II, the Corsair was one of the finest air superiority fighters in the world. By the start of the Korean War just five years later, however, the Corsair had been relegated to ground attack missions by the rise of jet fighters. In that role, the Corsair used cannons, bombs, and napalm to render invaluable close support to UN troops on the ground. Kit features two sets of decals for USMC aircraft in Korea.
Decal Options:
US Marine VMA-323 Code: WS16 (129354) Korea Feb., 1952-53

Since WWII, the landscape of the battlefield has constantly evolved with proliferation of new electronic tracking and attack systems. For forty years, the Prowler was the US Navy and US Marine Corps answer to the profusion of surface to air missile systems threatening American air superiority. These four-seat aircraft were responsible for electronic countermeasures, electronic intelligence, and command and control. Since 2009, the type has been phased out of the USN inventory with the last retired in 2015. Kit features a "farewell" special marking decal set.
