Designed with no engine, it was intended to be towed to altitude by a fighter such as the Messerschmitt Bf 109G before being released to make a steep attack. Its compact design placed the pilot in a prone position and used an armoured cockpit to reduce the aircraft's vulnerable frontal area. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bv 40 first flew in May 1944, but the programme was cancelled later that year before the aircraft entered service. The standard concept called for two 30 mm MK 108 cannon, while proposals also included R4M air-to-air rockets. This Brengun boxing focuses on the rocket-armed project, making it an interesting subject for modellers who enjoy experimental aircraft, Luftwaffe prototypes and lesser-known WWII aviation designs. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuild using paint, modelling glue and suitable modelling tools.
