1-300 Large Bomber 1943 "Ploesti Raids" Supplement

This decal set provides historically themed markings for USAAF heavy bomber miniatures in 1-300 scale, with the unit, visibility scheme and period specified in the product title.

Historical Context

Operation Tidal Wave on August 1, 1943 sent USAAF B-24 Liberators from North Africa on a daring low-level strike against the oil-refining complex around Ploesti, Romania. The attacking force included the 44th, 93rd, 98th, 376th and 389th Bomb Groups. The mission became one of the most famous—and costly—American heavy-bomber operations of the war, making the distinctive aircraft and group markings of the raid especially popular modeling subjects.

Sheet Contents & Marking Notes

Suplement sheet for large bombers like the B-17 & B-24 wings and fusalage. Each sheet contains 3x sizes that are larger than the standard sheet of USA N. Africa Op "Torch" 1-300 scale sheet.

Product Features
