I think I will give up on that, I wanted to get hubby a kit but all know is he had one and built it from a kit in the 60s, his Dad threw it away when hubby joined the RAF and I don't want to ask him any more about it in case he guesses why I'm asking, thank you all for your help.

There are quite a lot of companies that make them now, including Airfix, who are usually pretty good.

I googled "stuka kit" and got lots of choice. I'm sure you will find one to suit your OH.

I inherited a few of those, damaged beyond reasonable repair....only parts useful were the engines..

OH says..........these were made by Cox in the 60's but haven't been made since, and weren't ever kits as such, you screwed the bits together.
Dreadful fliers apparently. Just a toy really.

Thank you both I'll see if I can but either a kit or a ready made one, he had one that made from a kit but his Dad threw it away when he had a tidy up in the shed.
