ICM 48271 Plastic model aircraft kit 1:48 Do 217N-1 WWII German Night Fighter

Dornier Do 217N-1 is a 1/48 scale plastic aircraft model kit from ICM representing the twin-engine night fighter developed in Germany during World War II. The Do 217 series evolved from earlier Dornier bomber designs and was adapted into several specialized roles including night interception. The kit is supplied as an unpainted and unassembled plastic model.

The Do 217N-1 variant was designed for night fighter operations and equipped with radar and heavy armament to intercept Allied aircraft during nocturnal air operations. Aircraft of this version served with dedicated night fighter units and operated primarily in European airspace during the later years of the war.

Dornier Do 217N-1 – WWII-era German Night Fighter

The Do 217N-1 retained the twin-engine configuration and large fuselage of earlier Do 217 bombers but was adapted for interception duties. The aircraft carried forward-firing armament and specialized equipment used for locating aircraft in low-visibility conditions.

For modelers: Aircraft with large glazed nose sections and radar equipment benefit from careful preparation of clear parts and interior assemblies. Completing cockpit and radar operator compartments before closing the fuselage helps preserve interior detail.
