Authentic Details of the Doolittle Raid
The B-25B Mitchells that flew in the Doolittle Raids faced extraordinary challenges. Launched from a Navy aircraft carrier without protection from enemy fighters, they were stripped of guns to save weight for extra fuel. Equipped with painted dowel rods in the tail to simulate machine guns, these planes were a marvel of ingenuity. Though 15 of 16 planes crashed in China due to fuel shortages and weather, the mission succeeded in boosting American morale and striking fear into Japan. This mahogany aircraft model captures every authentic detail of these heroic bombers, from the carrier-launch modifications to the distinctive markings that made them instantly recognizable.
