Product technical overview

This set is designed for the assembly of the largest American “Flying Fortress”—the B-17 Flying Fortress aircraft, which was one of the pillars of American bomber aviation during World War II (years in service: 1938–1945, period: World War II). These aircraft were widely used by the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) during strategic raids against industrial and military targets in Europe. The B-17 was known for incredible durability, and its advanced landing gear construction was essential for operating such massive bombers from harsh, primitive airfields.
