Named after Major General William "Billy" Mitchell, a pioneer of U.S. military aviation, the North American B-25 Mitchell was once one of the most heavily armed aircraft in the world. Deployed in most theaters of war across the Pacific, North Africa, China, Alaska, and the Mediterranean, it was particularly devastating in ground attacks throughout the 1940s. Great for those beginning to build models, this kit includes the aircraft (118 pieces), acrylic paints, a brush, and poly cement to tack it all together.
