Created as part of the \"Volksjäger\" (People's Fighter) program, it was intended to be a low-cost, mass-produced counterpart to counter Allied air superiority. Approximately 320 He-162s were produced, and these aircraft saw combat service mainly in Germany, in the units of \"Jagdgeschwader 1\". It was used exclusively by the Luftwaffe – the German Air Force.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: \u003cstrong\u003e1\/72\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eUser country: \u003cstrong\u003eGermany\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePeriod of use: \u003cstrong\u003eWorld War II (1945)\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eProduct category: \u003cstrong\u003ePlastic model aircraft kit\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: \u003cstrong\u003ehigh-quality plastic\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eThe set does not include glue or paints\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eKit details and contents\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Special Hobby 72341 kit offers detailed reproduction of the features characteristic for the He-162 – including the distinctive wing arrangement and the engine mounted above the fuselage.
