ACADEMY 12459 1/72 Fi 156 Storch "Morane Saulnier"

Model Aircraft Kit

Few aircraft of the Second World War earned the legendary reputation of the Fieseler Fi 156 Storch, whose extraordinary short takeoff and landing performance allowed it to operate from tiny clearings, rough roads, and frontline fields where conventional aircraft simply could not function. Renowned for its high-lift wing design and remarkable slow-speed handling, the Storch served extensively in reconnaissance, liaison, and medical evacuation roles throughout the war. After the conflict, production continued in France under Morane-Saulnier, preserving the aircraft’s unmistakable profile and exceptional flying characteristics for postwar service.
