The Heinkel He P.1080 was a planned fighter, powered by two ramjets, armed
with two 30 mm canons and a radar in the nose.

The excellent resin kit from Airmodel Products contains only a few parts in
high accuracy and very lovely detailed surfaces. It´s easy to build and so recommended to beginners in resin modelling. As the fuselage with wings
comes in one part, I had to drill through the ramjets, further I added the pitot tube, antenna and the gun barrels. The trolley is also included. Here
I build the supports for the fighter from scratch. Two paint schemes were shown in the instructions, but I decided to create my own one. There are no
decals in the kit, so I used some I had left from other models and from ordered extra decal sheets.
