Product Description
- The Royal Air Force introduced the DB7 into its domestic service under the name Boston.
- Boston I, an early production model equipped with the French standard P&WR-1830-SC3-G.
- Late production models equipped with the R-1830-SC4-G were designated Boston IIs, but were later converted to Havoc I night fighters.
- In addition, 100 aircraft equipped with the improved Wright R-2600-A5B were introduced as DB7As, which were then converted to Havoc IIs.
- The A-20 series was widely used not only by the US military, but also by the UK and the Soviet Union under Lend-Lease.
- As a twin-engine attack aircraft, it is an outstanding aircraft with excellent speed, good maneuverability, and easy maintenance that maintains a high operational rate, and above all, it boasts high survivability, being able to return home even with minor damage.
- Until now, it was believed that the Havoc Mk.I's exhaust pipes were only on the outside of the engine, but research by the manufacturer revealed that there were also exhaust pipes on the inside, so the kit comes with an additional exhaust pipe and a new cowling.
- The A-20 Havoc is a twin-engine attack aircraft developed by Douglas Aircraft Corporation of the United States.
- Deployed and used by the Allied nations during World War II, the aircraft provided to the UK were operated under the name Boston.
- The Navy adopted it as the BD, and the nickname "Havoc" for the A-20 and BD means "Destruction," but this is a reverse import of the name given to a modified A-20 series night fighter in the UK.
