21st Century 1/32 262

I picked up a 262 gray number 5 today. I don't recall this version. There was no box. Anybody have any info on this plane? It has a great color scheme/ camo paint. Thanks.

Yeah, it's a regular issue, but I can't remember exact details right off hand.

Is this the gray version with the white 5 on the side? If so, its from the Erprobungskommando 262. I recall the interesting name from the package label, even after all these years. Still have mine as well.

Erprobungskommando 262 was formed in April 1944 in Lechfeld to test the Messerschmitt Me 262. The unit was disbanded on 26 September 1944 and used to form Kommando Nowotny.
