Its goal was to create an exceptionally fast reconnaissance aircraft and a prototype for a future bomber. The He 119 stood out due to its original propulsion system—two coupled V12 engines were mounted in a nacelle within the fuselage behind the cockpit, driving the propeller via a shaft running through the aircraft's nose. Thanks to this innovation, the aircraft achieved record-breaking speeds for its time and set several FAI records.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere was the Heinkel He 119 used?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough it ultimately never entered mass production, the He 119 was tested by \u003cstrong\u003eGermany (Luftwaffe)\u003c\/strong\u003e in the second half of the 1930s. Its prototypes took part in World War II exclusively at the testing and trial stages, never seeing combat use due to the design’s complexity and cost. Nevertheless, the He 119 is remembered in aviation history as an exceptionally advanced experimental aircraft from the \u003cstrong\u003elate interwar period\u003c\/strong\u003e and the early days of \u003cstrong\u003eWorld War II\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Contents of the Valom 72100 Heinkel He 119 Kit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: \u003cstrong\u003e1\/72\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser country: \u003cstrong\u003eThird Reich, Luftwaffe\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical period: \u003cstrong\u003e1936–1940, World War II\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: \u003cstrong\u003ehigh-quality plastic\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlue and paints not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes clear parts for building the cockpit glazing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed decal sheet – Luftwaffe markings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhoto-etched parts (in selected kits) to enhance detail level\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho do we recommend this model for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Valom 72100 Heinkel He 119 is an excellent choice for intermediate and advanced aircraft modelers, enthusiasts of German aviation technology, or collectors seeking unique and lesser-known machines. The 1\/72 scale allows for accurate detail while maintaining a manageable model size. Due to its higher complexity (curved fuselage shapes, unusual propulsion layout, and photo-etched elements), we recommend this kit for those with an \u003cstrong\u003eexperience level of 3-4\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e. It is a unique treat and a challenge that will add an extremely rare Luftwaffe experimental aircraft to your collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Valom","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54722418377038,"sku":"VLM72100","price":94.71,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/5149\/0638\/files\/f8f8e969cdddbc48124eff49eacfcca9.jpg?v=1755537726","url":"https:\/\/plastmodel.pl\/en\/products\/39769-valom-72100-heinkel-he-119-luftwaffe-172","provider":"Plastmodel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
