The Avro Lancaster was the most famous RAF heavy bomber of the 2nd World War andwent into service in 1942. More than 7,300 of these machines were built for RAF Bomber Command. One of the most important RAF targets was the destruction of theRuhr dams that supplied important industrial installations with power. In order to accurately attack such robust targets as dams or barrages a rotating bomb wasdeveloped which was better known as the bouncing bomb . For this attack a special new unit was set up, 617 Squadron under the command of Wing Commander Guy Gibson. Code-named Operation Chastise this raid took place with 19 Lancaster bombers on the night of 16th to 17th May 1943. The first two dams – Mƶhne and Eder – were successfully destroyed, whereas the other two – Ennepe andSorpe withstood the attack.
The nuclear powered Enterprise is the first aircraft carrier of its kind and is one of the largest ships ever built. On 25.11.1961 this gigantic aircraft carrier was put into service. Eight water-cooled reactors generate a total output of 300,000 hp, with which the ship reaches an average speed of 35 knots. The displacement is 75,700 tons and the flight deck is 76.8 meters wide. On average, 414 officers and 4,260 crew members are on board. As the Enterprise is independent of external supplies due to its nuclear propulsion, large fuel depots are available for the on-board aircraft. The largest and most modern U.S. Navy aircraft can be deployed from the Enterprise.To model:- Can be built with a complete fuselage or as a waterline model- 30 aircrafts- Detailed superstructures- Rocket arming- Radar antennas- U.S. Navy decals- Display stands
The Mosquito was one of the RAF’s most powerful and fastest bombers during the Second World War and was built in a total of 5,500 units until 1945. The lightweight aircraft owes its success to the special materials used, with wood being used instead of aluminium for the basic structure and exterior coating. The prototype flew on 25 November 1940, after which the Wooden Miracle went into series production. The Mosquito flew away from all German fighter planes.
