Due to external factors, it is often mistaken for the development version of Do-17. The first designs of the new aircraft were created as early as 1937, but serial production began at the end of 1940. The first unit to receive the Do-217 bomber version in March 1941 was the II Gruppe belonging to Kampfgeschwader 40 (II \/ KG 40). The Do-217 had a much greater range, speed, and bomb carrying capacity than the Do-17. This was mainly due to the use of much more powerful engines - BMW 801A with 1,540 km or DB 603A with 1,726 km. Over the course of the war, over 1,900 Do-217 different versions were produced. The basic version was the \"E\", which served as a medium bomber. It was also the Do-217E-5 that could carry the Hs 293\/4 or Fritz X air-to-water guided missile. The \"J\" and \"N\" versions were also built on a large scale, serving as night fighters. The Do-217 machines were used primarily in the Mediterranean and in the air campaign over Germany against Allied strategic bombers. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_attachment\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"_attachment\"\u003eTechnical data (version Do-217 M-1): Maximum speed: 557 km \/ h, speed of climb: 3.5 m \/ s, maximum ceiling 7,370 m, maximum range: 2,145 km, armament: fixed-4 MG81 cal machine guns .7.92mm, 2 MG131 machine guns cal.13mm, pendant, up to 4000 kg of bombs.\u003c\/div\u003e","published_at":"2026-10-12T16:48:00+02:00","created_at":"2026-10-12T16:48:00+02:00","vendor":"Italeri","type":"Scale Model Kits","tags":["Brand_Italeri","Category_Aircraft","Scale_1\/72 Scale","Type_Propeller Aircraft"],"price":82995,"price_min":82995,"price_max":82995,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":68305106436347,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"8001283912662","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Italeri - 1\/72 Dornier Do 217 J1\/J2 Nachtjager","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":82995,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Italeri-1-72-Dornier-Do-217-J1-J2-Nachtjager.jpg?v=1791816483"],"featured_image":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Italeri-1-72-Dornier-Do-217-J1-J2-Nachtjager.jpg?v=1791816483","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":46324526940411,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.322,"height":605,"width":800,"src":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Italeri-1-72-Dornier-Do-217-J1-J2-Nachtjager.jpg?v=1791816483"},"aspect_ratio":1.322,"height":605,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Italeri-1-72-Dornier-Do-217-J1-J2-Nachtjager.jpg?v=1791816483","width":800}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch1\u003e1\/72 Dornier Do 217 J1\/J2 Nachtjager\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eItaleri 91266\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExcludes all glues, paints and tools necessary to assemble.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe twin-engine high-wing bomber Dornier Do 217 was widely employed by the German Luftwaffe during the Second World War.
