-<imgcaption mfr_box|Manufacturer box art.>{{box.jpg|}}</imgcaption> <imgcaption completed_a|Example of completed model.>{{image1.jpg|}}</imgcaption> +A purely fictional variant of the already immaterial Gotha Go P.60, this design was produced by AZ Model themselves - moving the lower engine from its ventral position in the Go P.60 design to a twin engine ventral configuration... looking a little bit like a smaller Arado E.555 (if you squint a little bit).
  
-Any other information about this box/set.+The Go P.60 was intended to be a heavy fighter, and the //C// variants to be //night fighter// derivatives. There's no particular night fighter addons in the kit... I think AZ Model just changed the engine configuration, slapped some new decals in the box and thought it was good. I //do// think the ventrally mounted engines make for a better looking model... even if it's a fanciful design of an __already__ paper-only fighter!

 +An aftermarket photo-etch kit is available from NH Detail for the various AZ Model Go P.60 kits (i.e. //not// specific to this C-6 variant):
