Details:
In the 1930s, the Martin model 139 became the paragon for a modern twin-engined bomber airplane of all metal construction. Besides seeing service with the US Army Air Force, the type also found its way to the air forces of several other countries. Various versions of the Model 139 bomber aeroplanes flew with the Netherlands East Indies, Argentina, Turkey, Siam, and China military – where the Martins flew missions against Japanese invaders and even penetrated the Japanese mainland to drop propaganda leaflets. The Siamese Martins took part in the war with France.
The kit offers four sprues with styrene parts, one clear plastic sprue and photo etches. The decal sheet caters for two Chinese Martins, one as flown in Siam and one from Turkey.
