MATPK-120 - Matchbox 1/72 Boston MkIV Havoc A-20G - WWHP113178

Preowned, Resealed, Mint

The Douglas A-20 Havoc served as a fast light attack bomber with the USAAF and, as the Boston, with the RAF and Free French. The A-20G replaced the glazed nose with a solid gun nose and added a powered Martin dorsal turret, while the Boston Mk.IV corresponded to the glazed-nose A-20J used for lead-ship and bombing work. This 1977 Matchbox tooling covers both, with decals for the 675th Bomb Squadron machine "Green Hornet" in the South West Pacific and a No. 342 (Lorraine) Squadron aircraft in France.

Box contents:

• Injection moulded sprues in three colours
• Clear parts for the nose, canopy and turret
• Waterslide decals for two schemes, USAAF and Free French
