[About the actual machine]
-The DC-3 was the Douglas passenger plane that entered service in 1936 before World War II.
-A twin-engine propeller aircraft equipped with two Pratt & Whitney engines that are used on airlines around the world.
-And when World War II begins, it will be used in large quantities as a transport aircraft for US military transport missions.
-Again, not only on paved airfields, but also on unpaved and grassy runways, the robustness of taking off and landing helped.
-The aircraft used by the military were given the name C-47 Dakota, or Skytrain.
-In addition, a seaplane type equipped with a float was also developed with the aim of operating in areas such as islands without airfields.
-First flight of the prototype in 1942.
-About 10 aircraft were produced and deployed in the Pacific theater.
[About the model]
-The model is a plastic model assembly kit that reproduces the C-47 seaplane type, a transport plane that was active in the transportation mission during World War II, on a 1/144 scale.
-The kit is prepared with new molds such as float parts.
-Firmly modeling the wheel parts equipped with the float when using it on land, including the pillar parts that connect the float and the aircraft. Both can be reproduced.
-Float equipped volume finish can not be overlooked.
-Of course, the body shape, body, and wing panel lines are delicately expressed with concave molds.
-Two types of markings are recorded: markings for military aircraft operated by the US military during the war, and markings for civilian aircraft that were sold to the private sector after the war.
-Please add one unique machine to the collection.
