Okay experts...Was an Fw-190 fighter ever been mated to a Heinkel He 111 bomber for a possible "Mistel" combination? Thanks!

I have read on a few different variations of the Mistel, but none associated with the He-111.

The Ju-88 and variants were the only bombers used for the actual Mistel project, but were piggybacked by a variety of aircraft including Fw-190s and Bf-109Gs.. The "other" Mistel projects with the jet variants were only on paper and never actually utilized..

Corgi has a Ju 88 model and a Fw 190, Hmmmn, I wonder if they have ever considered making a Mistel?

Thanks for the response, guys. I was toying around with the idea of doing a Mistel project in 1/48 using FM/Armour's Fw-190 and an He111, but since
that configuration is non-existant and a fantasy, I guess I'll just have to do it in 1/72nd using your suggestions for the Corgi models instead.

Oh that would be so cool! Count me in. If Corgi doesn't make one, I am sure our good man Harry could make you one for a price. He's a expert in the modeling way and would do a super job too I bet!

Italeri has a nice 1/72nd Ju 88/Bf 109F variant and DML/Dragon had a 1/48th scale Ju 88/Fw 190F version, but sure would like it if Corgi would put one out. Need no help in knocking out a kit though, here is my 1/48th scale Ju 88.
