Hasegawa 1/20 Ma.K. FALKE — Early Production Type

Kit + WBE-004 Studio Reference — Three Configurations Overview This is where the FALKE story starts. The original Pkf.85 entered combat during Operation Super Hammer — fast, agile, and decisive. 13 enemy aircraft downed in the air, 9 destroyed on the ground, 25 armored vehicles eliminated. Not a single FALKE lost in the operation's initial phase. The platform proved itself immediately. It also proved its limits. The 23mm Vulcan lacked penetration against heavy targets. The infrared laser was unstable in humidity and dust. Field teams went to work. What came next — the EXCIMER upgrade, the GRIFFON, the OTSU — is documented in full in WBE-004. This kit is the beginning of that story. Build the Early type, or use it as the foundation for the EXCIMER conversion documented in the guide. The Kit — Hasegawa 1/20 Pkf.85 FALKE Early Production The original boxing. Classic tooling, classic decal suite. 23mm Vulcan armament Boom radar configuration Decals for 4 units across 8 marking options Full-colour double-sided paint card Build it as the Early type — or follow WBE-004 and convert it to the EXCIMER configuration. The Original boxing supports both.
