Academy Models 1/48 Hispano Ha-1112 Buchon Description
The Academy 1/48 Hispano Ha-1112 Buchon is a plastic aircraft model kit. The HA-1112 airframe is a Spanish-built version of the famous Messerschmitt Bf109G fighter. With no German engines available after 1945, early postwar versions were powered by the Hispano-Suiza engines. Later versions used the Rolls-Royce Merlin engine. Altogether there were nine different Spanish variants using either of the two engines. Production ceased in the Spring of 1961. Many were sold into private hands and are still flying in the air show circuit. The installation of the upright V-12 engine makes the nose contours of the HA-1112 quite different from those of the original Messerschmitt Bf 109G, hence its nickname ?uchon. The ?uchon are popular performers and are among the only surviving examples of the famous German aircraft that can be seen in the air.
