This professional set is especially recommended for Italeri kits, providing a precise addition for any demanding modeler.

Historical Data and Application

The A-26 Invader aircraft is a light bomber and support machine that played an important role during World War II and in the post-war period up to the Korean conflict. Used from 1944 by the USA and allied nations, it was renowned for its remarkable effectiveness in combat missions over Europe, the Pacific, and Asia. Thanks to its versatility, the A-26—later designated as the B-26—became one of the most long-lived tactical bombers of the last century.
