Most of the aircraft was designed with blueprints from this website: https://modelgrad.com/avv-201004.html

the model is made in 1:1 scale and so will need to be scaled down for printing. 1.39% for 1:72 scale, 2.22% for 1:45 and 2.86% for 1:35.

The air intakes require some filling and sanding to make them look right, as I coluldnt give them their propper shape.
I strongly urge anyone more skilled in 3D-modeling than me to make a remix of this with the air intakes fixed, for this i have provided a step file of the model.
