HobbyBoss 1/72 US P-61B Black Widow Plastic Model Kit [87262]

SKU: HB87262 | Brand: HobbyBoss | Product: HobbyBoss 1/72 US P-61B Black Widow Plastic Model Kit [87262] As nocturnal bombing operations intensified across multiple theaters, night fighter development became critical. The American program, initiated in 1940, initially relied on modified P-70 Havoc and Beaufighter airframes until the first 45 P-61 Black Widows entered service in October 1943. The P-61B variant introduced the advanced SCR-720C Airborne Intercept radar system alongside an extended nose section and reinstated dorsal turret configuration on later production examples. This 1:72 assembly kit contains 90+ plastic components across 9 sprues, with 2 clear parts and 1 photo-etched piece (210mm length, 279mm wingspan). Static model assembly required; paints and cement not provided. Item No: 87262 | Scale: 1:72 | Released: 2017-12
