Academy Boeing B-29A Super Fortress Enola Gay

This is an Academy plastic model kit. The "Enola Gay" is arguably the most famous airplane of all time. On August 5, 1945, piloted by Colonel Paul W. Tibbets, this B-29A Super Fortress dropped the first Atomic bomb called "Little Boy" on Hiroshima, which began the push for the Japanese surrender in WWII. Academy's 1/72 scale plastic model kit is big. The 24" wingspan, four-engine bomber is a joy to build and impressive to display. Academy's Passion for Precision really comes through in this kit. Terrific interior detail throughout, including cockpit and bombardier area, crew tunnel between front and rear compartments, and bomb bay as well. Accurate decal sheet completes this historical kit.
