The TBF Avenger—a legendary U.S. Navy torpedo bomber—was a mainstay of American carrier-based aviation during World War II. First entering service in 1942, this rugged aircraft played a pivotal role in battles such as Midway and throughout the Pacific Theater. With its three-man crew (pilot, gunner, and radio operator/bombardier), the Avenger delivered deadly payloads of torpedoes and bombs against enemy ships while boasting exceptional survivability.
Now faithfully recreated in 1:48 scale using 392 high-quality COBI construction blocks, this model features historically accurate markings, a finely detailed pilot cabin, and brand-new light blue elements for a striking visual finish. The aircraft includes a spinning propeller, rotating wheels with functional landing gear, and an opening cockpit. A licensed and true-to-history build, this Avenger is perfect for collectors, history buffs, and brick model enthusiasts alike.
