The Horten IX, or Gotha Go-229 Flying Wing was actually built, but only a single prototype flew before the end of the war.  A single example is still in storage in the USA.

Revell Germany has a very nice kit with extremely good fit over all but the decals are bad (kit is the first version from Revell).  Good feet overall.  The cockpit and doors rips of landing gear assemble with Airwaves accessories No. AC72150.

I painted it with Gunze Acrilics.
