- 4. Horten Ho 229. Suggested kit: Dragon Ho 229A-1.
The replacement canopy
has an altered section around the windscreen area for better accuracy and

- 5. Arado Ar 234C. Suggested kit: Hobbycraft Ar 234C.
In order to fit the
lower section, we suggest cutting off the rear sections of the kit part and
fitting them to the kit fuselage, as marked X on the drawing. Then fit the
Clear-Vax items in place. Note that the framing around the edges of the clear
parts is internal. We suggest painting the framing from the inside with Schwarzgrau
66, and marking the rivet heads on the outside with a divider point or needle.

sides have internal mirrors fitted. Note that the Zerstorer canopy has an
armoured windscreen that extends a little further forward than the standard
version. Carefully trim the kit fuselage to fit this canopy.
