Airfix North American B-25B Mitchell Model Kit

Build the North American B-25B Mitchell with this 1/72 scale Airfix plastic model kit. Airfix reference A06020 depicts the famous American medium bomber associated with one of the most audacious air operations of the Second World War.

A Daring Mission Following Pearl Harbor

In the aftermath of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the United States developed a bold plan to strike at the heart of Japan and demonstrate its determination to achieve ultimate victory.

On 18 April 1942, sixteen B-25B Mitchell bombers took off from the comparatively short flight deck of the aircraft carrier USS Hornet and headed towards Tokyo. The aircraft were crewed by volunteers who accepted the considerable risks involved in this unprecedented mission.

This historically significant subject makes the Airfix B-25B Mitchell an appealing project for modellers interested in American aviation, carrier-launched operations and the air war of 1942.
