This aircraft played a key role in the Battle of Midway in June 1942, where it destroyed a significant portion of Japanese naval aviation, turning the tide of the battle. The primary users of the SBD-3 were the United States, mainly the US Navy and US Marine Corps. The SBD-3 version was used from 1941 throughout the entire war, and was characterized, among other features, by increased armor and self-sealing fuel tanks.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eKit Contents and Materials\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/48\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCountry of use: United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHistorical period: World War II (1941-1945)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality injection-molded plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eModel length after assembly: approx. 20 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eClear parts for the cockpit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDetailed cockpit, landing gear, and armament parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDecal sheet with historical markings\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eStep-by-step assembly instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eModel does not include glue or paints – these must be purchased separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eCategory and Skill Level\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    This product belongs to the category of \u003cb\u003eplastic model kits\u003c\/b\u003e.
