The SBD Dauntless dive bomber was a mainstay of the U.S. Navy air fleet in the Pacific during World War II. The SBD was credit with the lowest loss ratio of any U.S. carrier-based aircraft in the period. A total of 5,936 SBD/A-24s was delivered between 1940 and the end of production in July 1944. 

The SBD Dauntless featured "Swiss cheese" flaps — dive brakes punched with 3-inch holes. The dive brakes provided the means to achieve pinpoint accuracy by a near vertical dive into the target, dropping the bomb and then pulling out.

In addition to the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps and Army Air Forces, the Dauntless also served forces inFrance,New ZealandandMexicoas well.

The first enemy ship sunk by the U.S. Navy in World II is credited to a Dauntless from the USS Enterprise. The diving Dauntless went on to destroy 18 enemy warships, including a battleship and six carriers.

Upgrade versions of the SBD was introduced starting from March 1941. It had O.5O cal machine guns in the cowling. Self-sealing tanks were also added, as well as protective armor, and an upgrade 1,000 hp R-1820-52 engine for the SBD-5.

Big bloody plane kit

This is a fantastic kit of a very famous aircraft which saw action in the pacific against enemy aircraft carriers and a lot of American pilots sacrificed their lives in destroying the enemy aircraft carriers so this kit is bid very big it’s looks really good so am looking forward to putting it together problem is when finished god knows where am going to put it the wings are about 730mm long but good about this kit is you don’t work with small parts because everything is big I’ve bought several I love kits because they are very good to make and there is very little flash on the kit instructions are easy to read and the paint scheme is good to it tells you what paint to use so if you are looking for a big kit and a very famous one this is it and I can say that the price was fantastic from hobby tech toys
So thanks to the people at this company to which I’ve never had any problems with sorry can’t show any photos as I haven’t started the kit yet
