WWII Arado Ar 196 by Warren Zoell

Warren did a fantastic job replicating this aircraft. The Ar 196 was a shipboard reconnaissance aircraft built by the German firm Arado starting in 1936. The next year it was selected as the winner of a design contest, and became the standard aircraft of the Kriegsmarine (German Navy) throughout World War II. Nicely done.
