An iconic heavy bomber, the B-17 was made famous by movie appearances such as “Memphis Belle”. Originally developed and designed in the 1930’s, it first entered service in 1938. Flying along side such famous aircraft as the British Lancaster, the B-17 flew thousands of missions over Europe during the bombing campaigns and steadily gain a solid reputation as a sturdy aircraft capable of bringing it’s crews home safely. It became almost an icon when pictures appeared of severely damaged B-17’s still managing to arrive safely back home with massive holes blown out of the fuselage and control surfaces shot away! This model of the B-17 comes complete with internal details and a full load of conforming bombs… enjoy and happy rendering!
Included conforming figure add-ons:
* 1 set of conforming and fully poseable 500lb bombs is included.
These bombs conform to the B-17 and are individually poseable so that the user can make them fall away and tumble as they drop...
* 1 conforming prop blur prop to give a sense of motion to the aircraft in flight.
All flight control surfaces, rudder, landing gear, and moveable parts can be accessed in the scene tree for the skeleton of the B-17.
