REVELL B-24D Liberator, 5625 Assembly Manual

For most of WWII, Consolidated's

B-24 Liberator was the largest bomber
available to the U.S. Army Air Forces.
Only when the B-29 Superfortress
became operational late in the war
did the B-24 give up this distinction.
The B-24 operated in every theater
of the war by the USAAF, and the
British also used it in large numbers.
Your Revell B-24D model features
a detailed cockpit, interior and land­ing gear plus movable turrets and
guns, optional bomb bay doors that
can be open with a bomb load
or closed and a highly detailed
tow tractor with towbar. Authentic
decal markings with nose art for
two vertions are also included.
