just a thought, ive been reading about this type of bomb ever since i got the revell 1/72 fw190 & hagelkorn kit.
what are the posibilities a a nazi "Wild Weasel" (or "wildes Wiesel" in german) aircraft in 1945/46, besides the FW190, what other platforms can funtion the best as a SEAD platform

info: http://www.luft46.com/missile/bv246.html

what other roles can this early stand-off weapon fullfill, anti-ship, anti-armour, or even utilisation as a stand off A-bomb  :rolleyes: ?
on the bench:

-all kinds of things.

There's one of those in the Cosford Museum. At one stage you could see the core of the concrete wing, but it seems they may have mended it now, a pity as people just don't believe it!
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
