Horten H.IX V1, German Experimental Glider Scale 1:72 AMP 72007 Plastic Model Aircraft Kit

Horten H.IX V1 experimental flying wing aircraft plastic model kit in 1:72 scale represents a groundbreaking German aircraft developed during World War II.

The Horten H.IX V1 was an unpowered experimental glider built to validate the aerodynamic concept of the Horten brothers’ flying wing design. It served as the first prototype in a development program that later led to powered jet versions, marking a major step in tailless aircraft research.

Horten H.IX V1 – German Experimental Flying Wing Glider

Tested in the early 1940s, the H.IX V1 demonstrated the low-drag and high-efficiency characteristics of the flying wing configuration. Although the V1 was a glider, its successful evaluation laid the foundation for subsequent jet-powered variants developed during World War II.

This plastic model kit by AMP accurately depicts the Horten H.IX V1 in its original experimental glider configuration. The model belongs to the Aircraft Model Kits category and is produced in 1:72 scale, a standard scale for historical and prototype aircraft models.
