This is Revell's late 90s tooling of the Me-262, the single seat version of the first operational jet fighter in the world.
I've always liked the lines of this airplane, and still consider it one of the most beautiful and aesthetic designs.

It's an overall excellent tooling, well moulded, no flash, and goes together nicely with no fit issues. Very little filler is required - in fact, I only needed some around the engine nacelle to wing joints.
The canopy is atrocious - ill fitting, hazy, and has practically no framing. I had to paint it on using approximation and masking tape.
