Have you looked for information on Brett Green's modelling site Hyperscale?

The only bombers to see operational service powered by the Jumo 004 were the Me 262 and the Ar 234.

The first 1/72 kit of the Ar 234 was from Lindberg, and was of the B.
The next was Frog, and could be the B or the C, with V1 option. This has since reappeared under the Revell label
Dragon produced a number of Ar 234 kits, whether in 1/72, 1/48 or both I am unsure, but think both.

I believe there is another 1/48th kit, but it's not my scale, so cannot be certain. Monogram?

The Ju 287 flew with Jumos, but was a long long way from operational service.

Hi, folks...

Hasegawa do a 1/48 Arado Ar234B... rather a nice kit, too, with the exception of a very fine 'rib' on the external surface of the transparent nose which wasn't there on the real aircraft, so some seriously deicate sanding required... ! But yes, a nice kit otherwise, and well detailed, too.

Regards
