AIRFIX NORTH AMERICAN B25B MITCHELL 'DOOLITTLE RAID'

In the aftermath of the Pearl Harbor Raid, America embarked on an audacious plan to strike at the very heart of the Japanese nation and post clear intentions of their resolve for ultimate victory. On 18th April 1942, sixteen B-25B Mitchell bombers lifted off the relatively short deck of USS Hornet and set course for Tokyo – crewed by volunteers, each man would become an American hero.
