In early 1942 Avengers began to arrive at NAS Norfolk, Virginia and was assigned to VT-8. This made the squadron the first front-line unit to be equipped with the TBF-1 Avenger. The first to arrive was 8-T-1 BuNo 00380 wearing the inter-war red tail stripes and circle within the star insignia. Six VT-8 Avengers were sent to Pearl Harbor and on to Midway arriving just before the Battle of Midway. During this battle, the 6 TBF-1s from VT-8 flew against the Japanese forces and the 8-T-1 was the only Avenger to survive the encounter. This 1:72 Die-Cast Model is a replica of 8-T-1 and features realistic panel lines, antennas, access panels, and surface details. Pad-printed markings and placards that won’t fade or peel like decals. Opening canopies, revealing detailed cockpit interiors, interchangeable extended/retracted landing gear, and authentic detachable ordnance loads complete with placards. Includes a display stand. Measures 6.75”l with a 9” wingspan.
