1/72 H202 Revell Dam Buster Avro Lancaster with Secret Bomb

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Sealed Exc

Still factory sealed but the seal has split on the underside and left short side. Dated 1971, but this is the softbox issue from later in the 1970s. The Dam Busters squadron was famous for its daring raids on three German dams on May 16, 1943. Carrying the special Barnes Wallis-designed bombs, the Lancasters flew very low over the water in the face of heavy flak to drop the rotating bombs perfectly. Many did not return. The bombs did perform as promised, first skipping over the water, hitting the dam, then rolling down 30 feet before exploding with tremendous force. In an air burst these bombs would not have never damaged the dams; but since water is incompressible, the dams were breached.
