Detailed 1/48 Arado Ar 196 A-3 naval model

The Arado Ar 196 A-3 was a principal reconnaissance seaplane for the Kriegsmarine in World War II. Italeri's 1/48 rendition presents the aircraft's naval configurations, including its single radial engine and foldable wing tips that allowed it to be stowed aboard vessels like the Bismarck. The kit is supplied with a super decal sheet covering five distinct versions and a full colour instruction leaflet to support accurate assembly and painting.

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Decal Options: 5 Versions
  • Includes: Colour Instruction Sheet

How faithful is the kit to historical Arado examples?

The moulding reflects the Arado's characteristic features and naval layout, making it suitable for historical builds when combined with accurate paint schemes from the instruction sheet.

What marking choices are provided in the Italeri 2784S set?

The included super decal sheet presents five marking schemes, allowing modellers to select different operational liveries for display or collection.

Any tips for finishing small naval details?

Use fine brushes for cockpit and surface detail, and consider subtle weathering to suggest salt and service wear typical of shipboard aircraft for a convincing finish.
