Corgi 1/32 Messerschmitt BF109G Red 6 Oberfeldwebel Arnold Doring II./JG300 (AA34901)
The original ‘Wilde Sau’ unit, JG 300 used the Bf109 to fill the gap caused by the Allied use of ‘Window’, which temporarily blinded radar and hampered the conventional night fighters. Under the ‘Wilde Sau’ system, the single engined fighters of an entire staffel or gruppe were readied for incoming attack by Allied fighters/bombers. Divided into sections, the first section would take off within 15 minutes of enemy aircraft being expected and the following sections taking off at set periods afterwards. Dorings 2.Staffel existed from August 1943 and the application of black paint over standard day fighter markings was relatively unusual. Uniquely, Doring scored hi first ten victories as a bomber pilot with KGs 53 and 55. Transferring to the ‘Wilde Sau’ force, he also flew with II./JG 300 before another change to NJG 3. 1/32 scale Messerschmitt features exceptional levels of intricate detail including; removable engine covers with fully detailed engine, opening cockpit canopy with detailed pilot figure, removable gun covers with fitted machine guns and ammunition, moving flaps, rudder, ailerons and elevators, fully retractable undercarriage, rotating propellor and cradle display stand.
