Fokker Dr.I B-17F Memphis Belle A-1E/AD-5 Skyraider

Fokker Dr.I

Plastic Model Kit by Roden
The Fokker Dr.I's compound structure consisted of a cable-braced steel tube fuselage, and cantilever wings with wooden ribs and single main box spar, all covered by fabric and plywood panels. All this made the construction very light in weight. The machine was equipped with a standard 110 h.p. Oberursel URII air-cooled engine, enabling the aircraft to demonstrate excellent flying qualities. The Fokker Dr.I was not especially fast, but its maneuverability, due to its small dimensions, was considered unequaled at that time.
Kit features structurally detailed fuselage and wings, molded in high quality polystyrene for minimal flash or mold marks.
Scale 1/32. Length 7" Wingspan 9". Skill level 2. Glue and paint required (not included).

A-1E/AD-5 Skyraider

Plastic Model Kit by Revell Germany
One of the most powerful combat aircraft ever was the A-1 Skyraider that was flown for the first time in 1945. By 1956, 3180 had been built - mainly single seaters. The AD-5 with its wide two-seat cockpit, longer fuselage and larger tail unit, is generally reputed to be the best Skyraider. It was used in Vietnam by the US Navy and USAF for close support and rescue operations. The Wright R-3350 radial engine delivered 2700 hp and a top speed of 320mph.
Kit features Cockpit with pilot, instrument panel, movable propeller, detailed landing gear, auxiliary tanks, 2 bombs, and optional decals for the US Navy and USAF versions.

Douglas A-26 A/B Invader C-130J Hercules C-119C Flying Boxcar

Douglas A-26 A/B Invader

Plastic Model Kit by Italeri
The Douglas A-26 entered the Second World War at a relatively late date: the first eighteen examples were, in fact, sent to the European front in the summer of 1944. However, shortly afterwards, the Invader demonstrated its worth, and on the cease fire the troops equipped with these planes had flown more than 11,000 missions. Also in the Pacific, in only a few months, the Invader consolidated its fame as the crew’s favourite bomber. After a short period of time, the A-26 found itself fighting again in Vietnam. It then became the average standard bomber of the USAF used in the War in Korea. It was in this conflict that the A-26C variant was more widely used; characterised by P&W R-2800-27 engines and a glass nose, which contained the Norden bombsight. Many examples were successively supplied to smaller air forces, which kept them in service until the middle of the 70’s.
Kit features cockpit including control panel, realistically molded engine nacelles, detailed landing gear. Waterslide decal markings included for:
1: A-26B-552nd BS, 386th BG, Beaumont, France 1944

C-130J Hercules

Plastic Model Kit by Italeri
While it maintains the familiar lines of the Hercules, a common sight in the world’s skies for decades now, the C-130J has been extensively re-designed. The most visible change lies in the use of two 4700 HP Rolls-Royce (Allison) AE2100D3 engines, with six-blade composite-material propellers that ensure silent running and low fuel consumption. High performance features include an excellent rate of climb and an extended range of action thanks to the new engines. An equally important development is the avionics: the cockpit, in fact, is equipped with new digital instruments and a Head-Up Display that provides the pilot with a constant stream of data without him having to look away from the cockpit window. The C-130J is steadily becoming the standard transport aircraft in many NATO countries.
Kit features detailed payload area. Rear loading ramp can be modeled in the open or closed position. Forward crew access ladder can be fixed in the open or closed position. 4 detailed engines. Window glazing. Waterslide decal markings included for:
1: US Maryland Air National Guard

C-119C Flying Boxcar

Plastic Model Kit by Italeri
Developed by Fairchild from the previous C-82 Packet, the C-119 was one of the most important transport planes of the Fifties. The C-119C model had two 28 cylinder Pratt&Whitney four row radial R-4360 engines and it was distinguished from later types partly by its single wheel front undercarriage and different tail design. Production of the C-119C was speeded up when the Korean War broke out and these planes were soon being used for most of its transport missions. At the end of the war, a large number of the planes were supplied to the French, who used them widely in Indochina.
