Description

This exquisite 1:500 scale die-cast model from Herpa's Miniaturmodelle collection captures the elegant lines of the British Airways Embraer ERJ-145 regional jet. Finished in the airline's contemporary livery featuring the iconic Speedmarque tail design in red, white, and blue, this limited edition model (article number 509848) showcases exceptional attention to detail.

Herpa's commitment to authenticity ensures this model is a faithful miniature reproduction of the original aircraft.

The Embraer ERJ-145 is a Brazilian-made regional jet that revolutionized short-haul aviation when it entered service in the mid-1990s. Designed to carry up to 50 passengers, this aircraft became a workhorse for regional operations worldwide. The ERJ-145's distinctive T-tail configuration and rear-mounted twin engines provide excellent performance on regional routes. British Airways operated these aircraft through its regional subsidiaries, connecting smaller UK cities to major hubs. The real aircraft measures 29.87 meters in length with a wingspan of 20.04 meters and a height of 6.75 meters, making it perfectly sized for regional operations where larger jets would be uneconomical.
