Ooh I do like that M41 with side skirts! Finally a use for that Tamiya kit lurking in the back of the stash…
Any idea what the camo colours might be? Pity the show was in monochrome.

I understand kits are available for the "Messerschmitt"s as modified for the movie and the solitary “Hurrischmitt”, the latter needed to supplement the Hurricanes which were in short supply compared with the Spitfires.

So in the BoB movie, what kind of M-47 was Col. Hessler’s “Tiger”?

They were Spanish M-47E/M. The movie was shot in Spain in 1965
