Probably most of us automatically associates a dive bomber with Ju 87. Not many remember that next to the Stuka Luftwaffe have also used Henschel Hs 123 in the same role. Kagero Publishing tells us few words about Stuka "little fellow" in their latest monograph.

Thanks, Michal, for providing that review. This was a very important aircraft - future General of the Air Force Adolf Galland got his start in an Hs 123. Pity that the only 32 scale kit is a hugely-expensive resin one. I wish Revell of Germany would bring out a styrene version.
