Lot Essay

According to published information in Germany the Robot 375 was made C.1938-1940 for the German Luftwaffe and was fitted into Stuka fighter planes. A German catalogue records one Robot 375 in the Robot factory museum in Düsseldorf, one other was sold in September 1996 (with an incomplete description which makes serial number comparison impossible) and this example is the third known example.
