The Academy 1/72 USN PBY-5A Midway kit captures the essentials of the Catalina amphibian in a compact package. The moulded components convey the aircrafts unique hull and float arrangement so builders can assemble a convincing wartime seaplane.
This PBY-5A kit emphasises the defining features of the aircraft, including the hull shape and wing floats, so you get a recognisable finished model. The parts fit together to recreate the observation blisters and engine nacelles that characterise the type.
Academys engineering delivers parts with sensible detail and alignment, making painting and weathering straightforward. When complete the model makes a solid display piece that reflects the strategic seaplane operations of the 1940s.
