While waiting for pizzaguy making the 1:18 version. I've built the smaller kit made by PM to add to my small 1:72 Luft project collection. Hope you like the pics..

I've never heard anything about it but I read somewhere that the Soviets captured the design and copied it to make the Mig 15.

Take a look at a picture of a Tunnan and see what you think.I'm computer illiterate and can't post one so you'll have to Google it for yourself

Yes I did find the "Swedish J 29 Tunnan ( The barrel ) " and agree it looks like the German Huckebein.
