upor Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) Hs-293 is one of the weapons of the Third Reich that became the pioneer of all types of anti-ship guided cruise missiles. Using the standard SC-500 aviation bomb with additional wings and tail feathers, the Henschel were able to bring this planning bomb with a Walter HWK 109-507 rocket booster to mass production effective enough to be used against Allied ships, 17 of which were sunk, and the battleship «Warspite» is among the damaged ships. Although the Hs-293 was developed as an anti-ship system, there were facts of its use in the destruction of bridges after the landing of the Allies in Normandy. The carriers of this system could be the He-111, He-177, Do-217 bombers. The model of this planning bomb will be a good addition to your collection, and studying its history will reveal interesting facts that are not always on the surface ,since the first work on Hs-293 began back in 1939! http://lemkits.com/product/1-32-henschel-hs-293a-0-a-1-limited-edition-resin-kit/ https://www.ebay.com/itm/114013664164?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 Edited December 13, 2019 by upor LSP_Kevin, Dany Boy, D Bellis and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
