Horten H IX V1 project early Scale 1:72 AMP 72017 Plastic Model Aircraft Kit

Horten H.IX early project experimental aircraft plastic model kit in 1:72 scale represents the initial conceptual stage of the famous German flying wing program developed during World War II.

Before the construction of the H.IX V1 glider, the Horten brothers explored several early project configurations aimed at validating the flying wing concept for high-speed, long-range applications. These early designs focused on aerodynamic efficiency, reduced drag, and tailless stability.

Horten H.IX – Early Project Flying Wing Concept

The early H.IX project phase reflects the theoretical and design work that preceded physical prototypes. These studies laid the groundwork for later experimental aircraft and ultimately influenced the development of jet-powered flying wing variants. Historically, this project belongs to the World War II experimental research period.

This plastic model kit by AMP depicts the Horten H.IX in its early project configuration, distinct from later V1 and V2 developments. The model belongs to the Aircraft Model Kits category and is produced in 1:72 scale, suitable for collections focused on experimental and conceptual aircraft.
