Arma Hobby – 70076 – U.S. Bombs WWII/Korean War

Description:

Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of U.S. aircraft bombs employed during WWII and the Korean War.

Arma Hobby expands its 1/72 scale accessories line with a highly useful set of U.S. WWII-era general-purpose bombs, perfect for modelers looking to arm their Allied aircraft with historically accurate ordnance. This set includes bombs in the most commonly used weights—100 lb, 250 lb, 500 lb, and 1,000 lb—that were widely deployed across all major theaters of WWII and remained in service through the Korean War, and even into Vietnam. Whether you’re building a fighter-bomber, a light attack aircraft, or a heavy bomber, this bomb set offers great flexibility and authenticity.

These bombs were commonly carried by a wide range of aircraft including the P-47 Thunderbolt, P-51 Mustang, F4U Corsair, Douglas A-20 Havoc, B-25 Mitchell, and B-17 Flying Fortress in WWII, as well as F-80 Shooting Star, F-84 Thunderjet, and Douglas A-26 Invader during the Korean War. The kit includes a plastic sprue with finely molded bombs and a sheet of stencil decals for added realism. Whether used in airfield dioramas or mounted under wings, these weapons will elevate the detail level of any U.S. aircraft build from the mid-20th century.
