Master AM-48-028 German radar FuG 218 "NEPTUN" is a high-quality replacement radar antenna set in 1/48 scale, designed for World War II-era German night fighter aircraft models such as Messerschmitt Me 262, Me 1101, Arado Ar 234, and others. The product is produced by the renowned manufacturer Master, which specializes in precision modeling details that allow you to take the realism of your models to an even higher level.

The FuG 218 "Neptun" was a radar used by the Luftwaffe on interceptor aircraft, primarily from 1943 to 1945, in the final phase of World War II. Thanks to this system, night fighters were able to more effectively detect Allied bombers conducting carpet bombing raids over Germany. The system was installed on, among others, the Messerschmitt Me 262, Me 1101, Do 335, and Arado Ar 234. It was one of the most advanced radars of its era, providing a significant advantage to German night fighter pilots.
