Special Hobby 72299 N-3PB Little Norway service is a high-quality plastic model kit in the popular 1:72 scale, representing the Northrop N-3PB patrol seaplane.

The Northrop N-3PB is an American patrol seaplane developed in 1940 on special order for the Norwegian Air Forces in exile. During World War II, at the "Little Norway" training base in Canada, these aircraft were mainly used for training as well as reconnaissance and patrol missions. The aircraft was primarily operated by Norwegian pilots between 1941–1943, both in Canada and Iceland, protecting Allied convoys against attacks from German submarines. Production was limited to only 24 units, making this model extremely interesting from both a historical and collector's perspective.
