Metal 3D Model Kit B-17 Flying Fortress Metal Earth ME1009

The Metal Earth ME1009 B-17 Flying Fortress is a metal 3D model dedicated to one of the most iconic heavy bombers of World War II. Made from 2.5 metal sheets, it lets you create a miniature replica of the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress from pre-cut parts that you detach and assemble.

The B-17 Flying Fortress was an American heavy bomber used during World War II. Its turbo-supercharged radial engines provided the performance needed for high-altitude operations, especially beyond the effective range of anti-aircraft artillery. Its distinctive silhouette, with its large fuselage, wings, and four engines, makes it an essential subject for enthusiasts of historical aviation and military models.

This Metal Earth model kit is intended for hobbyists from 14 years old. Its Challenging difficulty level is suited to careful assembly, requiring precision and attention when shaping and fitting the metal components. The range is based on detaching the parts from the steel sheets, then assembling them to form the finished model.

Once assembled, the B-17 Flying Fortress measures 17.5 cm long, 13.5 cm wide, and 4 cm high. Its compact size makes it easy to display in a collection focused on aviation, military history, or metallic scale models.
