He 177 Greif – Historical Background

The Heinkel He 177 Greif was a twin-engine, long-range heavy bomber developed for the Luftwaffe by the German company Heinkel. It served during World War II from 1942 to 1945. It was mainly used by Germany for long-distance bombing missions, including attacks on strategic and supply targets on both the Eastern and Western fronts. One of the distinguishing features of the Greif was its glazed forward fuselage section with extensive glazing, making the mask set an invaluable convenience for any modeler.
