The most widely produced of the B-25 series of bombers, this aircraft featured two 1,850hp Wright Cyclone engines, an array of .50in guns, and carried up to 4,000 lbs. in bombs. Designed as a medium range bomber, B-25s served with every allied air force during WW2.

North American B-25J Mitchell

Originally designed as an attack bomber for export to France and the UK, the B-25 Mitchell was first flown on August 19, 1940. Rejected by the countries it was designed for in favor of the new Douglas DB-7, the B-25 later entered service with the Army Air Corps as a medium bomber. Early in its service career, the B-25 became famous for its role in the Doolittle Raid. Nearly 10,000 B-25s were built by North American Aviation, and the aircraft's service spanned four decades. Named for aviation pioneer Billy Mitchell, the B-25 is the only US military aircraft to bear the name of an individual person.

Forces of Valor's 1:72 scale B-25s are a great value, featuring details usually seen only in higher priced models. Each model has hand-applied weathering that brings out the access panels and riveting details across its surface. There are eight nose-mounted machine guns, four fuselage-mounted machine guns and a 360 degree rotating turret behind the cockpit canopy. Hinged bomb bay doors open to reveal bombs and bulkhead details. The solid metal wing has separately applied transparent landing lights, and the landing gear is constructed as a complete subassembly, which makes this model easy to configure for ground display.
