Eduard 6481034 B-17F Bombsight PRINT is a specialist set of modelling accessories designed for the B-17F Flying Fortress bomber model in 1/48 scale by Hong Kong Models. This product has been created to enrich the interior of your model with a precisely reproduced bombsight—an indispensable piece of equipment for the American bomber used extensively by the United States Army Air Forces during World War II.

The B-17F Flying Fortress bomber is an icon of the Allied forces, participating in numerous strategic bombing raids over Europe between 1942 and 1945. The bombsight, a key piece of this aircraft’s equipment, enabled precise targeting and bomb release, increasing the combat mission effectiveness at altitudes reaching up to 10,000 meters. The introduction of advanced bombsights, such as the Norden, changed the face of aerial warfare, making American bombers a formidable tool in air operations.
