HISTORY ASPECTS:
The Junkers Ju-88C-6, bearing the code R4+HH, was a formidable night fighter operated by Gerhard Böhme in the 1st Staffel of Nachtjagdgeschwader 2 (NJG.2) during 1942. Deployed to Catania, Sicily, this aircraft played a crucial role in the nocturnal battles over the Mediterranean during World War II. Equipped with radar and armed with formidable firepower, the Ju-88C-6 became a feared adversary for allied bombers flying under the cover of darkness.
Gerhard Böhme and his Ju-88C-6 were actively involved in nighttime operations, intercepting and engaging allied aircraft attempting to strike Axis targets in the Mediterranean region. The NJG.2, stationed in Sicily, faced the challenging task of countering British and American bombers conducting night raids. The Ju-88C-6, with its advanced radar technology and potent armament, was instrumental in disrupting and repelling these nocturnal air raids.
This 1:72 scale model captures the distinctive features of Böhme's aircraft, showcasing its radar equipment and night-fighting capabilities. Aviation enthusiasts and collectors can now own a piece of history, commemorating the courage and skill of Gerhard Böhme and the NJG.2 night fighter crews who operated the Ju-88C-6 in defense of Axis interests in the Mediterranean theater. Display this iconic aircraft replica to honor the legacy of those who flew it during the challenging nighttime missions of World War II.
