26.8k RASEN1914  8.2 years ago

100% historically EXACT replica of the Douglas A-20G Havoc/Boston or DB-7 (Douglas Bomber Nº7), an American attack, light/medium bomber and intruder plane of WW2. It entered in service with USA, British commonwealth, Australia, the Soviet Union, France, the Netherlands, South Africa and Brazil.

/Read instructions below the description/

Although not the fastest or longest-range aircraft in its class, the Douglas DB-7 series distinguished itself as a tough, dependable combat aircraft with an excellent reputation for speed and maneuverability. In a report to the British Aeroplane and Armament Experimental Establishment (AAEE) at RAF Boscombe Down, test pilots summed it up as: "has no vices and is very easy to takeoff and land ... The aeroplane represents a definite advantage in the design of flying controls ... extremely pleasant to fly and manoeuvre."
Ex-pilots often consider it their favorite aircraft of the war due to the ability to toss it around like a fighter.The Douglas bomber/night fighter was extremely adaptable and found a role in every combat theater of the war, and excelled as a true "pilot's aeroplane".

This one is painted with the schemes of the 22 Squadron of the Royal Australian Air Force


Enjoy this impressive attack fighter, one of my favourite planes!!

    How come my planes never look this nice...
    Than again, they are all fictional, but I doubt replicas will change anything for me. Forever hopeless...
    Leaving an upvote this plane is cool
