The Italeri 1/72 Me 410A-1 Hornisse (074) is a 1/72 scale model kit of the Messerschmitt Me 410 'Hornisse' (Hornet) — the twin-engine heavy fighter and bomber destroyer that replaced the troubled Me 210 in Luftwaffe service from 1943. The Me 410 was used for bomber interception over Germany, for anti-shipping strikes, and for reconnaissance, carrying a variety of heavy weapon combinations including the 50mm BK 5 cannon for bomber destruction. An interesting and sometimes overlooked late-war German twin-engine subject.
