I noticed.  I suspect there's a story there we haven't heard.

The one kit I have from them does not fit well and has soft details. Perhaps this is to change that?

Well, I noticed some missing obvious details on their B-2A, so I can only hope.

I built the Planet 1/72 resin version last century. I then reconstructed the FW 1000x3  in the plane builder part of X-Plane. It flew well, but reversing the winglet position (so they pointed up) greatly improved the maneuverability. Too bad this is 1/48.  It's a relatively small plane so it could be rescaled to 1/72 but probably too small to scale up to 1/32 or 1/35

Did they lose the molds for the A-12? I'd rather get a US cancelled project than another German paper project in kit form for a change.
