SB2Us were part of the Marine Air Wing based at Ewa Field. Along with the SBD-1s they were wiped out on the ground.

So can anyone help me out? Im helping roof our house this weekend and dont have a lot of time for searching. I know Enterprise had some SBD's in the air during the attack, but where does the SB2U come in?

If someone besides revell makes a P-40 from Pearl Harbor, I'll build it, just not a fan of the revell one.

In 1/48 for a P-40B there is the old Monogram kit currently isued by Revell, the newer Hobbycraft kit currently out under the Academy label, and a Trumpeter kit. The Monogrm kit actually captures the lines of the nose best, but the other two have newer style tooling with recessed exterior detail and better wheel wells and cockpits.

Real RB:

Here is the list:

Hasegawa 1/72 A6M2 Zero: with Saburo Sakai "1942 Rabul" markings I figure it is the same A/C as the Zero that attacked PH

Hasegawa 1/72 B5N2 Nate: Hiryu Gp PH 1941.

Fujimi 1/72 Aichi Type 99 Val: PH markings?

I am in. I think I will go for the gold on this one though. I will do a Zero, Val, and a Jill. All are in 1/72 scale. I should be done with most of my oher commitments by then. Can't wait.
