Academy ACA12495 Memphis Belle - - Model Kit Various 705 Liter 2188

Academy 1/72 B-17F Flying Fortress 'Memphis Belle' Plastic Model Kit The Boeing B-17 is easily the most famous bomber to emerge from the Second World War. Its ability to withstand the punishment of sustained operations and aggressive German air defences helped to bring many an aircrewman home. It was this robust airframe that forced Luftw... moreaffe pilots to develop more aggressive tactics in order to achieve a 'kill', while the German defence industry built fighters with heavier fire power and even pioneered the air-to-air and surface-to-air missiles to try and keep the B-17 (and others) out of their skies. Academy has re-released their B-17F in 1/72 scale, this time featuring the historic markings of the 'Memphis Belle'.
