- The He177 is a four-engine bomber developed by the German company Heinkel and operated by the Luftwaffe during World War II.
- [Greif], which means griffon, is the official nickname given to the A-5 type.
- It looks like a twin-engine bomber, but it has a structure in which two engines rotate one propeller shaft.
- The equipped defensive armament was powerful, and the groundbreaking feature was a machine gun turret that could be remotely controlled from the cockpit, making a major contribution to reducing air resistance.
- Dive bombing capability was also required during the planning process, which led to a decline in the aircraft's performance, although the aircraft's structure and airframe strength were high.
- This book is a wonderfully detailed book containing data from original drawings, actual flight manuals, parts catalogs, etc.
- Full of information on color profiles, camouflage, markings, etc.
- An example of a 1/72 scale Revell He177A-5 by Libor Jekul is also posted.
- A must-have book for modelers and He177 enthusiasts.
