Revell – 03790 – P-Series – AR555

Description:

Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of a German World War II long range bomber project Arado E.555.

The Arado E.555 emerged as a strategic long-range bomber concept presented by the German Arado company in World War II, aligning with the RLM’s Amerikabomber initiative. The designation E.555 encompassed a range of design studies for long-range jet bombers, encompassing diverse specifications in terms of size, powerplant, crew, and weapon load configurations. Despite being confined to the realm of design proposals, no actual aircraft were built or developed, leading to the cancellation of the entire E.555 project by the close of 1944.

Kit originally was tooled in 1998, with code number 04367, and reissued in 2012. This reissue of 2024 seems only updates box and code number. Kit consists of 98 parts and include decal sheet with two markings.
