The Battle of Leyte Gulf in October 1944 was the largest naval battle in history, and TBF/TBM Avengers played a central role in its most dramatic episode — the astonishing defence of the escort carriers of Taffy 3, where Avenger crews pressed attacks against the most powerful Japanese surface force assembled since Midway, helping to turn it back against all odds. This Hobby 2000 kit presents the TBM-1C in the specific markings of aircraft that flew during this historic battle, giving the model a unique historical provenance. The 1/72 scale captures the Avenger's purposeful three-man crew fuselage, folding wings, and internal weapons bay in fine detail.
A historically unique and emotionally resonant subject for Pacific War and carrier aviation collectors.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Unless otherwise stated these models will need some construction and painting. Glues and paints are not included.
