`` ` ` `
After a lengthy development period, the
first Curtiss SB2C Helldivers sailed for
the Pacific aboard the USS Bunker Hill
in late 1943. By mid-1944. the Helldiver
had replaced the SBD Dauntless as the
U.S. Navy’s primary dive bomber. The
SB2C-4 incorporates changes starting
with the -3 version including a more
powerful engine, 4 bladed prop and
perforated dive brakes. Helldivers participated in every major naval action
in the Pacific during World War II, and
they continued in service with the U.S.
Navy until 1949. The SB2C-4 Helldiver
was produced in greater quantities than
any other Helldiver variant. The French
used them in combat in Indo-China
during the mid-1950s, and this marked
the end of the Helldiver’s service life.

FOR ADVANCED MODELERS, OPTIONAL PHOTO ETECHED METAL PARTS, IF NOT USING PILOT SHOWN IN STEP 3.
This kit contains photo etched parts for added realism. use a sharp knife to remove the parts from their tree and cut against a hard surface like a piece of glass. Stick
a piece of tape to the back of the photo etch tree so the parts don't fly off and get lost. Carefully sand the photo etch pieces to remove any remnants of their mounting
points. Some photo-etched parts will need to be sanded to fit properly. To attach the photo etched pieces to your model, use a toothpick or piece of wire to apply a
small amount of CA superglue, two-part epoxy, or clear enamel paint to your model. Then the photo etched pieces can be put into place using tweezers or a toothpick
dipped in candle wax.
