COBI 2997 – Nieuport 17C.1 110HP – Legend of the Skies

Step back into the heroic era of the Great War, when brave pilots made history as the "Knights of the Air." The Nieuport 17 C.1 was more than just an aircraft; it was the decisive answer to enemy technical superiority and became a symbol of French aviation excellence. This model brings the machine of Georges Guynemer, the legendary "Ace of Aces," directly into your collection, capturing the spirit of the pioneers who first conquered the skies.

This 1:32 scale model impresses with its technical precision. A standout feature is the historically accurate "sesquiplane" design, where the narrower lower wing creates the aircraft's characteristic silhouette. Thanks to its exceptional stability and intuitive instructions, the building process is a delight for modelers who value authentic proportions. Every detail, from the propeller to the structural layout, has been meticulously recreated to provide the tactile feel of a true fighter scout.

For AFOLs and history buffs, this set is a masterpiece of design, featuring absolutely no stickers. All markings and national insignias are high-quality pad prints, ensuring the model remains a durable and elegant centerpiece. Whether displayed on a shelf with its included nameplate or used as a sturdy model for aviation enthusiasts, this set perfectly bridges the gap between historical education and sophisticated brick engineering.
