About product

Bf 109F-4/R6 1:48 (ICM)

Injection-molded plastic kit of the German Messerschmitt Bf 109F-4/R6 fighter in 1:48 scale from ICM. Compared with the basic F-4, this version adds the Rüstsatz 6 field kit, that is two cannon gondolas slung under the wings. The kit offers finely engraved surface detail, a well worked-out cockpit, an engine and a segmented clear canopy.

The real subject

The Bf 109F-4/R6 was based on the aerodynamically refined Friedrich version with the DB 601E engine, fuselage machine guns and an MG 151/20 engine-mounted cannon firing through the propeller hub. The Rüstsatz 6 field kit added two gondolas with MG 151/20 cannon under the wings and so increased the firepower against bombers considerably. The greater destructive power came at the cost of poorer agility and higher drag, yet it was a popular modification.

Building and painting tips

Use liquid cement for plastic and build in subassemblies. Finish and paint the cockpit and the engine before you close up the fuselage. Lay down a primer and apply the paints with an airbrush. Fine-tune the underwing gondolas and fit them only after the wings are painted, so that the transitions stay clean. Treat the canopy glazing with masks.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of German fighters of the Second World War in 1:48 scale
  • Fans of Messerschmitt Bf 109 versions with increased armament
  • Modelers who want a Friedrich with cannon gondolas
  • Moderately advanced builders

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
