Description
The striking Cold War mount of history's greatest fighter ace. This highly collectible 1:72 scale diecast model by Corgi (AA35816) replicates the Canadair CL-13B Sabre Mk 6 "JA-111," operating with Jagdgeschwader 71 "Richthofen" (JG 71) of the West German Luftwaffe at Wittmundhafen, Germany, in 1963. This aircraft carries profound historical provenance, serving as the personal mount of JG 71's first Kommodore—the legendary WWII ace Erich Hartmann. Hand-selected to lead West Germany's premier day-fighter wing, Hartmann personalized his squadron's Orenda-powered Sabres with his iconic black-and-red "Tulip" nose pattern, originally made famous on his wartime Messerschmitt Bf 109s. Finished in an authentic early-Luftwaffe grey and green camouflage with Hartmann's personal "R" coat of arms insignia, this model captures the peak of early Cold War aviation design.
Ideal for curators of Cold War military history and elite jet fighter collections, this Aviation Archive Collector Series release serves as a definitive historical artifact. The model is engineered for exceptional scale accuracy, featuring an easily configurable rear speed brake that locks into place to reveal actuator arm details, fixed fuel tanks mounted to solid metal swept wings, and a sliding canopy that opens to reveal a detailed cockpit and pilot figure. Complete with a sleek metal presentation stand that showcases the swept-wing jet in an elegant in-flight profile, this premium diecast model offers a sophisticated display presence for collectors prioritizing pilot legacy and West German aviation history.
