1/72 scale Minicraft Model Kits B-24L Liberator review

The B-24L by Minicraft Model Kits is a very nice model kit. It comes with the option to make it with bombbay doors open or closed. It comes with the four markings you can choose from. It is a very nice model but the tail drops down when fully built, so I would recommend to glue the door on the bottom of the plane open so the back of the plane resets on it, making the front wheel hit the ground.Over all it is a very nice model.

B-24D Liberator

The B-24D Liberator is an American World War II bomber. It had nine machine-guns. The B-24D was a very big plane, it had four engines and could carry up to 8,000 lbs of bombs. The B-24D did missions in the south pacific and in Germany. In the south Pacific it would do anti-submarine missions, and in Germany bomb factories. It was dangerous to fly B-24s on a mission you could get hit by flak or get intercepted by enemy fighters.
