Usmc Sbd-1 "Pearl Harbor"

This 1:48 scale model recreates the legendary Douglas SBD-1 Dauntless, seen in action during the aftermath of Pearl Harbor, one of the most defining moments of the Second World War.

The Dauntless was the first dive bomber designed for both the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Marine Corps, combining range, accuracy, and rugged reliability. The SBD-1 variant, assigned to the USMC, operated from land bases during the early Pacific campaigns.

The fuselage features engraved panel lines, a detailed radial engine, three-blade propeller, movable dive flaps, realistic landing gear, and faithful tail surfaces.

The cockpit includes fully detailed instrumentation, accurate pilot seats, reproduced seatbelts, a movable rear machine gun, realistic HUD, and a clear openable canopy.

Armament options include 500 lb bombs, 7.62 mm Browning guns, auxiliary fuel tanks, and optional components for recon or light attack versions.

High-quality decals depict markings from the USMC VMB-241 Squadron stationed in Hawaii during Pearl Harbor, 1941.

A model that embodies historical accuracy, technical excellence, and the heroic spirit of early U.S. Marine Corps aviation.
