O B-25 tem o privilégio de ser a primeira aeronave da FAB a entrar em combate na II Guerra Mundial. O primeiro ataque efetuado por uma aeronave da FAB a um submarino alemão foi no dia 22 de maio de 1942. Um B-25B do Agrupamento de Aviões de Adaptação, encontrava-se em patrulha nas imediações do arquipélago de Fernando de Noronha e do Atol das Rocas, onde quatro dias antes havia sido afundado o navio mercante brasileiro “Comandante Lyra”, pelo submarino italiano “Barbarigo”.
Às 14 horas, a tripulação do B-25 – sob o comando do Cap.-Av. Parreiras Horta (FAB) e composta pelos Cap.-Av. Pamplona (FAB), 1st Lt. Schwane (USAAF), Sgt. Yates (USAAF), S/Sgt. Tyler (USAAF) e S/Sgt. Robinson (USAAF) – surpreendeu um submarino alemão navegando na superfície, o qual imediatamente reagiu com forte tiro de artilharia antiaérea à presença do B-25B.
De acordo com as ordens então em vigência, uma vez que o Brasil se encontrava em estado de neutralidade, as tripulações só poderiam engajar unidades inimigas caso fossem atacadas inicialmente. Assim sendo, a tripulação do Mitchell lançou suas cargas de profundidade, as quais caíram próximas ao submarino – a foto à direita mostra a tripulação do B-25 após o ataque. Cinco dias após, outros dois B-25 da mesma unidade da FAB efetuaram ataques a submarinos.

The B-25 has the privilege of being the first FAB aircraft to enter combat in World War II. The first attack carried out by a FAB aircraft on a German submarine was on May 22, 1942. A B-25B from the Adaptation Aircraft Group was on patrol in the vicinity of the Fernando de Noronha archipelago and the Atoll of Rocas, where four days earlier the Brazilian merchant ship “Comandante Lyra” had been sunk by the Italian submarine “Barbarigo”.
At 2 pm, the B-25 crew – under the command of Capt.-Av. Parreiras Horta (FAB) and composed of Cap.-Av. Pamplona (FAB), 1st Lt. Schwane (USAAF), Sgt. Yates (USAAF), S/Sgt. Tyler (USAAF) and S/Sgt. Robinson (USAAF) – surprised a German submarine sailing on the surface, which immediately reacted with strong anti-aircraft artillery fire to the presence of the B-25B.
According to the orders then in force, since Brazil was in a state of neutrality, the crews could only engage enemy units if they were initially attacked. Therefore, the Mitchell crew launched their depth charges, which landed close to the submarine – the photo on the right shows the B-25 crew after the attack. Five days later, two other B-25s from the same FAB unit carried out attacks on submarines.
The model represented is the last S.55 in existence , he was used by the Naval Aviation of Brazil before 1941(when the Army Air force and the Naval Aviation United to form the FAB , aka Brazilian Air Force).
For operations, does It needs to be in great scales?or we can launch Special Team operations behind enemy lines to Sabotage the launch sites or, for an even better example, plant heavy explosives in runways to hinder enemy flight operations?
@Tohu of course yes! i have this friend of mine who is really good at editing videos, im gonna ask him to help and when it is ready i will let you know! and , thank you!
@Tohu i can mod one of them to look like a guerrila, but if you can do it i would be very thankful [i dont have any real experience with walkers, you see..]
@Tohu I'm currently creating a story where the wright isle is taken by force by russian military and rebels move to the mountains and start a guerrila warfare.
So, both of your soldier creations fit my story, can i use them in some future builds ?(obviously, all credits given to u)
@Dragoranos oohh soorry i forgot to mention, i dont want to enter the challenge right now, i just modded your tank so we have something beyond only combat vehicles
Real aircraft main changes:
At the heart of this update ackage is a Leonardo Grifo F radar, an advanced mechanical scanning pulse-Doppler radar with multi-target capability, as well as a data link developed in-house by Emb.
The jets also have a revised cockpit, along with new avionics including inertial navigation/GPS, three liquid crystal displays, a new head-up display (HUD) and the hands-on control concept.Also according to The Drive, the new glass cockpit is compatible with night vision goggles (NVOs) and the pilot has a helmet-mounted Elbit/AEL Targo screen, allowing for viewing and aiming. New self-protection systems include chaff/flare launchers, a new radar warning receiver and wiring for the use of Rafael's Sky Shield electronic warfare pod.
really well made.
I've seen the real one in a military museum one time,and you made it just like it.
Really nice work
(Only difference is the old camo scheme that the brazilian army insist in keeping)
Really well done,i think it is quite heavy BUT
When you attach it to attack aircraft it feels like youre carrying a heavy,cluster bomb so i think its a bonus.
Once again,well done
Excelent work!
BUT i found a problem.
He sort of..bounces back and forth,so in somewhat tight turns..well,the target os me!
(oh but when i don't DIE,he works pretty darn well,Just like your description!)
Good.
Little request:Brazilian battlheship São Paulo.
Reason:.out of the ordinary, and a very important ship in the history of South America and in the construction of some British battleships.
This British bad boy is not historically accurate. The real Tempest mkV reached 405mph, and this is about 350mph (I hope you understand, he still neutralizes any German air threat)
@SunKangning oh i see,but my complain is about the drag itself,more drag,more processing needed,too much processing,my phone goes BOOM.
(It's basically a potato with a screen)
@Mvgames sim 🇧🇷

This is the first of a series of builds i intend to post related to Brazilian military aviation and the 1932 Revolution.

@Tohu just.. PERFECT!!!
+2Thank you Tohu!!
@Tohu of course yes! i have this friend of mine who is really good at editing videos, im gonna ask him to help and when it is ready i will let you know! and , thank you!
+1@Tohu i can mod one of them to look like a guerrila, but if you can do it i would be very thankful [i dont have any real experience with walkers, you see..]

+2So, both of your soldier creations fit my story, can i use them in some future builds ?(obviously, all credits given to u)
@Hannyboy so, to create operations, how do i do ?
(I posted a APC today, and i want to use it on the war situation)
@Dragoranos oohh soorry i forgot to mention, i dont want to enter the challenge right now, i just modded your tank so we have something beyond only combat vehicles
+1I am terrified of this tank since i watched the new All is quiet in the western front movie...
+2Credits to original creator,the aircraft flies pretty well,even now i added weight to it.
can i post a modded version of this walker ?

@Ppaulo0978 valeu amigo,tmj!
bote? Do ventre do avião comissionado para produção.
Em breve postarei.
really well made.
I've seen the real one in a military museum one time,and you made it just like it.
Really nice work
(Only difference is the old camo scheme that the brazilian army insist in keeping)
Really well done,i think it is quite heavy BUT

Once again,well done
Look's like a pz III,pz IV and a T-34 had a son
Great tank.
Note:brazil operated mainly the land version of the catalina,yet,the color schemes were equal.
Note to mods:pls don't take it down,pra if It is needed notify me before
Excelent work!
BUT i found a problem.
He sort of..bounces back and forth,so in somewhat tight turns..well,the target os me!
(oh but when i don't DIE,he works pretty darn well,Just like your description!)
When i was building my f-14 i've seen something in the sky too,but at the time i didn't really care
+1@RedBaronBR valeu amigo,mas dá uma olhada no sukhoi que eu fiz,e..tenta avaliar mais os mísseis dele!(são custom,eu q fiz kkkk)
@Captaincarroca valeu cara,mas dá uma checada no sukhoi que eu fiz,acho que ele ficou melhor!
I forgot to put the action groups, but I think you can find out

Good.

The armor blocks actually explode when AP rounds touch, that's quite cool man.great work
It's quite weird to fly it,Just like the real one! that's cool
AE mano da uma checada na minha versão!
+1Ok,Quick question too.
Where is artillery Challenge results?
And why is It taking ALL this time?
Quite simple,and flies well.
+1Good creation.
without a doubt the best thing I saw in this community. DEUS VULT.
+1Ag9 realmente funciona, puedo hablar perfectamente el español inquisitivo
@VANT é nois mano,muito dahora esse tucano ai
Are you brazilian?
Very good for a start.
Actually,It works quite well on mobile,so...
good work!!!
Hope u guys like it
+1@JustDatGuy ok then
This British bad boy is not historically accurate. The real Tempest mkV reached 405mph, and this is about 350mph (I hope you understand, he still neutralizes any German air threat)
@Ultra0 this is special unit 25,made of british giants.sshhhhh no one can know, they are rare
Embraer must be very angry about this ... cool aircraft
+2i don't believe what i'm seeing.Pancelvonat,best builder ever.
+1won my upvote, and my respect.good job.
+1@SunKangning oh i see,but my complain is about the drag itself,more drag,more processing needed,too much processing,my phone goes BOOM.
(It's basically a potato with a screen)
Ok,really really good building, but,could remove drag?
Question:.what are those blue badges?
