Historical information about the Loire 130M model

The Loire 130M is a French reconnaissance floatplane introduced into service in the late 1930s. It was widely used by the French Navy mainly during World War II. These aircraft operated from large warships and seaplane tenders, performing missions such as maritime reconnaissance, search and rescue, and artillery spotting. The Loire 130M saw combat service during, among others, the French campaign in 1940 and in French colonies in Africa and Asia.

Who is it intended for?

This product is highly recommended for both beginner and advanced modelers working with World War II aviation models.
