Silbervogel Antipodal Bomber Scale 1:72 AMP 72014 Plastic Model Kit

Silbervogel antipodal bomber experimental aircraft plastic model kit in 1:72 scale represents one of the most ambitious and radical aerospace concepts of World War II.

The Silbervogel (“Silver Bird”) was a proposed suborbital bomber designed by Eugen Sänger and Irene Bredt as part of a German long-range strategic strike concept. The aircraft was intended to use a rocket-powered boost phase followed by a series of atmospheric skip-glide trajectories to reach intercontinental targets.

Silbervogel – Conceptual Suborbital Bomber Project

Although never built, the Silbervogel project introduced ideas far ahead of its time, including hypersonic flight, lifting-body aerodynamics, and antipodal strike capability. The concept influenced later Cold War research into spaceplanes, ballistic trajectories, and reusable space vehicles. Historically, it belongs to the late World War II experimental research period.

This plastic model kit by AMP depicts the Silbervogel as a conceptual experimental aircraft. The model belongs to the Aircraft Model Kits category and is produced in 1:72 scale, suitable for collections focused on experimental, conceptual, and advanced aerospace projects.
