Italeri 1/72 Dornier Do 217 K1/K2 Bomber with Fritz X Guided Bombs
The Dornier Do 217 was one of the Luftwaffe's most versatile twin-engine bombers of World War II, capable of strategic bombing, anti-shipping strikes, and night-fighting operations across multiple theaters. The K1/K2 variant took the design a step further — featuring a reinforced fuselage, redesigned wing surfaces, and upgraded engines — and was specifically configured to carry the Ruhrstahl SD 1400 "Fritz X", one of history's first precision-guided weapons. On September 9, 1943, a Do 217K deployed a Fritz X that struck and sank the Italian battleship Roma off the coast of Sardinia — a milestone in the history of guided munitions.
Italeri's 1/72 scale kit (#1488) captures this historically significant aircraft with a comprehensive decal sheet and color instructions covering six distinct versions.
