Trumpeter's Midway boxing of the SBD-3 is a large model: in 1:32 the dive bomber has room for a photo-etched fret and a film part for the instruments. Markings are for S-9, an SBD-3 of scouting squadron VS-5 from USS Yorktown in June 1942. At Midway that month, Dauntless dive bombers sank all four Japanese carriers taking part in the battle. A pilot and a rear gunner made up the crew.
