HISTORY ASPECTS: The North American B-25D Mitchell, tail number 41-30024, known as "Red Wrath," served with distinction in the 498th Bombardment Squadron of the 345th Bombardment Group during World War II. The B-25 Mitchell was a versatile and durable medium bomber that played a crucial role in the Allied bombing campaigns across multiple theaters of the war. "Red Wrath" was part of the 345th BG, which was known as the "Air Apaches," a unit that earned a formidable reputation for its precision bombing and low-level strafing missions in the Pacific Theater. "Red Wrath" and its crew participated in numerous critical operations throughout the Pacific, including the campaigns in New Guinea and the Philippines. The B-25D was particularly suited for these missions, with its robust design and ability to deliver accurate bomb strikes and strafing runs on Japanese positions and shipping. The 498th BS, flying out of airfields in New Guinea, conducted relentless attacks on enemy airfields, supply depots, and troop concentrations. These missions were vital in weakening Japanese forces and disrupting their supply lines, contributing significantly to the Allied push towards Japan. One of the notable operations involving "Red Wrath" was its participation in the Battle of Leyte in late 1944. During this campaign, the 345th BG provided crucial support to ground troops by targeting Japanese defenses and supply routes, facilitating the successful Allied invasion and liberation of the Philippines. The bravery and skill of the crews flying "Red Wrath" and other B-25s were instrumental in achieving air superiority and supporting the overall strategic goals of the Allied forces in the region. This 1:72 scale model offers a detailed and authentic representation of one of the most storied aircraft of the Pacific Theater. Complete with accurate markings and intricate detailing, this replica captures the spirit and history of the 498th Bombardment Squadron and its vital contributions to the Allied victory in World War II. It is an essential addition for collectors and history enthusiasts, celebrating the legacy of the "Air Apaches" and their courageous missions.
