VJ-101C-X1 Supersonic-capable VTOL fighter Model Kit Aircraft Scale 1:72 A&A Models AAM7203

EWR VJ 101C-X1 aircraft model kit in 1:72 scale represents an early prototype of a German experimental jet aircraft developed during the Cold War as part of an advanced vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) research program.

The VJ 101 project was conducted by the EWR consortium, formed by Heinkel, Messerschmitt, and Bölkow. The program aimed to explore the feasibility of a high-performance VTOL combat aircraft capable of combining vertical takeoff with fast conventional flight.

EWR VJ 101C-X1 – Early Experimental VTOL Jet Prototype

The VJ 101C-X1 served as an early flying prototype used to validate the VTOL concept, engine arrangement, and flight control systems. While later variants achieved higher performance, the X1 played a crucial role in the development process by proving the basic design and operational principles of the aircraft.

This plastic model kit by A&A Models accurately represents the distinctive configuration of the VJ 101C-X1, making it suitable for builders interested in experimental aircraft, VTOL technology, and Cold War aerospace research projects.

The kit belongs to the Aircraft Model Kits category and is produced in 1:72 scale, allowing it to be displayed alongside other experimental jet aircraft models.
