A 1/48 scale model kit of the Vought SB2U-3 Vindicator, a US Navy dive bomber that saw combat during World War II, most notably at the Battle of Midway in 1942. Although already considered outdated by the time of the battle, the SB2U-3 was still used by Marine Corps squadrons for scouting and bombing missions against Japanese forces.

Features:

  • Highly detailed fuselage and wings with fine surface details
  • Fully equipped cockpit with instrument panel and pilot seat
  • Optional open or closed canopy
  • Accurately moulded landing gear with extended or retracted display options
  • Bomb loadout and underwing details for realistic dive bomber configuration
  • Decals for authentic US Navy and Marine Corps unit markings from Midway

A great kit for modellers interested in early WWII naval aviation and historic aircraft from the Pacific War.
