Flettner Fl 282? The latter was used (or at least tested) by the Kriegsmarine;
There was obviously not too many helicopters around during WW2. Though, here's something to get your head around...Fletter FI 282 B-2's had a rear seat. In 1945 a few (with a few Fa 223's) were used for artillery observation on the eastern front. There's even a suggestion that a few were in operation over the Ardennes vs US forces. Now that would be an interesting sight, a chopper popping up over a snowy tree line circa January 45.

Mine's always easy (but that said, I've gone through a decade break with the young family thing going on...):
- M-59
- M-75
- M-48A1
- French F3 SP 155mm artillery piece
- Israeli M50 SP howitzer or similar

But I've got soooo much painting to catch up on.

It's a lovely model too! If you're looking for missing IDF artillery, the Makmat 160mm is probably the next biggest hole that needs filling.

Ooooh..... yes, that one. I'll have to come up with another. Shouldn't be too difficult.
