They were the first fleet squadron to get the A-6 Intruder and the last unit to fly it in operational service.

KA-6D US Navy VA-145 SWORDSMEN(NE-522/151810). VA-145 was a U.S. Navy attack squadron that served for 40 years as an active duty squadron. The KA-6D was an A-6A modified for use as aerial refueling tanker to support other strike aircraft. The DIANE system was removed and an internal refueling system was added, sometimes supplemented by a D-704 refueling pod on the centerline pylon. The KA-6D theoretically could be used in the day/visual bombing role, but it apparently never was, with the standard load-out being four fuel tanks.

AUGUST 2013 RELEASE: NA B-25 Mitchell - Tokyo Raid Doolittle Raiders Ruptured Duck One of the sixteen North American B-25 Mitchell medium bombers that took part in the famous Doolittle Raid of 1942, 'The Ruptured Duck,' along with Doolittle's own aircraft is one of the best known of the aircraft that took part. Conceived as a way to boost the morale of a nation still reeling from the attack on Pearl Harbour, the Doolittle Raid consisted of the USAAF flying a number of B-25 Medium bombers off an aircraft carrier close to Japan, bombing Tokyo and then flying on to land in China. While material damage would be slight, the effect on morale back in America, and detrimentally in Japan, would be huge.'The Ruptured Duck' got its name from scraping its rear fuselage on the runway during training. After bombing Tokyo the aircraft flew on to China where it crashed into the sea near Shangchow. All of the crew survived, though the pilot Lt. Ted Lawson lost a leg in the ditching.

AUGUST 2013 RELEASE: Messerschmitt Bf109G6. The Messerschmitt Bf109G was the most widely produced of all the variants of Germany's most famous fighter aircraft. Fighting over the Mediterranean, the Western Front and over the steppes and tundra of Russia, the 109G proved itself to be a versatile and effective fighter, staying in service until the end of the war. This Bf109G6 was flown by Erich Hartmann, one of the most famous pilots of the war and the most successful of all time. He began his flying career with Messerschmitt Bf109s and used them throughout the war, during which time he amassed an incredible 352 aerial victories. All bar one of his kills were scored while flying with JG52 and it was in this Bf109G6 that Hartmann scored his only non-JG52 victory. While in temporary command of JG53 and based in Hungary during 1945 he downed a Yak-9, pouncing upon it as it escorted a number of A-20 bombers. Surviving the war Hartmann was imprisoned in Soviet Russia and upon his release he became an officer in the West German Air Force, his famous Tulip nose art becoming synonymous with the unit he then commanded, JG71 Richthofen. He died in 1993.

JULY 2013 RELEASE: Dornier 17 17Z-1 Horst Wessel. The Dornier Do17 was one of the Luftwaffe's most important early war bombers. Operating during the campaigns over Poland, France and the Low Countries, it also served in the Balkans and during the opening years of the war against Russia. However, its small bomb load and poor defensive armament meant that it was less effective and more vulnerable than its contemporaries, the Junkers Ju88 and Heinkel He111. It was not generally used in the North African desert, which makes this aircraft something of an enigma. Zg26 was one of the most famous of all Luftwaffe fighter groups, as they often painted a bright yellow wasp on the nose of their Bf110 fighters. It is believed this Dornier was on strength with them as a transport or squadron hack before its capture and subsequent testing at the hands of the RAF during the Italian campaign.

MAY 2013 RELEASE: Westland Puma HC1. The Puma HC1 is a twin engine medium sized transport and utility helicopter. Used by the RAF since the late 1960s, the Puma has proven itself to be a capable and reliable machine. Undergoing only limited upgrades throughout their service, only now are serious modifications being made to modernise the Puma fleet. Like many Pumas, XW214 served with the RAF in Northern Ireland, operating as a transport helicopter throughout the region during the start of the troubles. The Puma proved to be an invaluable machine, able to carry large loads and survive the sporadic small arms fire that occasionally greeted British forces. XW214 suffered major damage when it had an altercation with a hanger door en-route to a photo shoot with Airfix for the unveiling of their new 1:72 Puma model kit in March 1973. Ending up on its side and damaging a number of cars, another Puma had to be hastily repainted to take part in the unveiling.

This, the HMA8 version has been operational since the 1990s and featured an improved weapons and radar capability over the earlier HAS.3 variant. One of the strengths of the Lynx is its impressive manoeuvrability. Able to do rolls and loops that other helicopters cannot, and combined with high speed, the Lynx is a perfect air show display machine, as proven by the Royal Navy's aerobatic team, the Black Cats. Formed in 2001 and originally called the Lynx Pair, the team has given outstanding displays for over a decade. Crews are drawn from 702 NAS based at Yeovilton and their aircraft are painted in this striking cat based livery.

MAY 2013 RELEASE: Avro Lancaster - Johnny Walker Throughout the Second World War the Lancaster was involved in a number of daring and historic raids. From the famous breaching of the dams during Operation Chastise to the later battles over Berlin and Hamburg, the Lancaster was at the forefront of many Allied bombing campaigns. The Lancaster was also instrumental to the sinking of the Tirpitz which, at the time, was the pride of the German Navy. Towards the end of the war the Tirpitz was hiding in a Norwegian fjord, safe from the Royal Navy, but vulnerable to attack from the RAF. On the 12th November 1944 the RAF attacked her for the final time. Codenamed Operation Catechism, the raid consisted of 31 Lancasters from 9 and 617 Squadrons armed with the 12,000lb Tallboy bomb. Despite the battleship using its huge 38cm guns to try and break up the bomber formation, the ship was very vulnerable and was hit by two bombs. The Tallboy from W4964 penetrated near the aircraft catapult, exploded and created a large hole in the ship's side and bottom. Shortly afterwards Tirpitz capsized, burying her superstructure into the mud. Lancaster W4964 completed a total of 102 missions, with the historic Tirpitz raid occurring on her 100th sortie..

The EAA, which has more than 1,000 chapters and 170,000 members, has agreed to make a small quantity of these two versions available to the Historic Sales dealer network. This very rare piece will be highly sought after by aviation enthusiasts around the world. About Paul H. Poberezny: Paul H. Poberezny is one of the most decorated men in the international aviation community, having received hundreds of trophies, awards and honors for his countless contributions to the world of flight. He is a 1999 inductee to the National Aviation Hall of Fame in Dayton, Ohio, joining such luminaries as Charles Lindbergh, Jimmy Doolittle and the Wright Brothers. A man of limitless energy, Paul is best known as the founder of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) as well as one of the world’s largest and most significant aviation events – the annual EAA AirVenture Oshkosh. This seven-day event attracts an attendance of more than 500,000 aviation enthusiasts and well over 10,000 airplanes. His distinguished military career spanned almost 30 years, during which time he was as a pilot, test pilot and a veteran of both World War II and the Korean Conflict. Prior to retiring with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel, Paul became the only man in the armed forces to attain all seven aviation wings the military had to offer – glider pilot, service pilot, rated pilot, liaison pilot, senior pilot, Army aviator and command pilot. Even more impressive, he was able to accomplish this feat without ever having the benefit of military aviation training. Paul has flown nearly 500 different types of aircraft, including more than 170 amateur-built (homebuilt) airplanes. These include some of the most famous military aircraft in our nation’s history… P-39 Airacobra, P-40 Warhawk, P-47 Thunderbolt, P-51 Mustang, and the F4U Corsair to name a few. He has also flown in the left seat of the B-17 Flying Fortress, the C-46 Commando and numerous other military aircraft. Today, Paul is considered one of aviation’s leading spokesmen here in the United States and around the world, representing the interests of more than 170,000 active EAA members. His P-51 Mustang resides in the EAA’s beautiful museum located at their headquarters in Oshkosh Wisconsin.

Space Shuttle (Discovery) w/Crawler Transporter. Dragon's space models are getting more and more exciting for modelers. This is demonstrated by the newest 1/400 scale item – the Space Shuttle Discovery mounted on a massive Crawler-Transporter. The idea behind this enormous vehicle was to transfer space rockets and Space Shuttles from NASA’s Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) to the launch complex at the Kennedy Space Center, a distance of some 5.6km. Two such vehicles were produced, and they were the world’s largest tracked vehicles when built. The Transporter-Crawler measures 40m long, 35m wide and 7.9m high. Its weight comes in at a staggering 2,721 tonnes! Space vehicles are carried aboard the Mobile Launcher Platform (MLP). With a maximum velocity of 1.6km/h and driving team of nearly 30 people. Built to 1/400 scale, the entire assembly of the Shuttle Discovery (with attached External Tank and two Solid Rocket Boosters) plus the MLP and Tractor-Crawler are produced in minute detail. Fine details such as the track links on the four tractors are all perfectly replicated. Even areas that are hidden (e.g. the inside surface of the MLP) are all fully furnished and painted. Discovery had the honor of conducting more flights than any other Shuttle – 39 missions spread over 27 years – and this astonishing Space Collection model from Dragon Wings is the perfect way to commemorate its accomplishments.

JUNE 2013 RELEASE: Supermarine Spitfire MkI - Duxford. P9374 was the 557th Spitfire built. Delivered to 92 Squadron on the 6th March 1940, the aircraft quickly found itself, along with the squadron, moved down to Croydon just south of London to cover the Allied evacuation of Dunkirk. It was on one such mission on 24th May 1940 that P9374 was lost. P/O Peter Cazenove was flying the aircraft when it was attacked by future ace Werner Hoffman flying a Bf110. Cazenove made a wheels up landing on a Calais beach and was quickly captured. The wreck lay on the beach covered by the sand until exposed due to a storm in September 1980. The aircraft looked more or less complete, with the engine and fuselage visible. The wreck was recovered towards the end of that year. The parts were passed around a number of collectors before ending up with the Aircraft Restoration Company at Duxford who finished the restoration, enabling it to take to the air for the first time since the 24th May 1940 on the 1st September 2011. Sadly Peter Cazenove, also a veteran of the 'Great Escape', passed away just days before he could be informed of the successful return to flight of his beloved Spitfire.

Dragon Lady, 9RW, USAF U-2R. Despite its advancing age, the U-2 “Dragon Lady” continues to fly high-altitude all-weather reconnaissance missions for the US Air Force (USAF) even today. Built by Lockheed, the U-2 is powered by a single engine, and its high-aspect-ratio wings and light construction resemble that of a glider. While its particular planform is required by the high altitudes at which the aircraft flies, this also makes it very difficult to operate. Indeed, the U-2 has to be flown at near maximum speed to avert stalling. Landing is a particularly hazardous undertaking as it uses bicycle-type landing gear and titanium skids on its wingtips. It can fly at altitudes of 21,000m, requiring the pilot to wear the equivalent of a spacesuit. The U-2R (initially known as the TR-1A) is a modified U-2C featuring larger under-wing “superpods” and increased fuel capacity. The type first flew in 1967, and the final example was delivered to the USAF in October 1989. It is powered by a Pratt & Whitney J75 turbojet engine, and a total of twelve U-2R Dragon Ladies were built. Various surveillance and intelligence-gathering sensors are carried onboard. This specific variant of the Dragon Lady is the subject of Warbirds’ new 1/144 scale die-cast model. It’s exciting as it’s a brand new design made from completely new toolings. The long, slim fuselage and outspread wings are accurately reproduced. Panel lines are finely engraved on it. With a wingspan of more than 210mm in this scale, this is a truly impressive model. To enable it to be presented to best advantage, it comes with a sleek metal display stand. This high-altitude recon aircraft is rarely seen, but collectors can now get their very own U-2R at desktop level!

SEPTEMBER 2013 RELEASE: Vickers Valiant - 543 Sqn RAF. Delivered to 543 Squadron in October 1956, WZ399 had a short life with the squadron. Deployed on exercise 'Snowdrop' in January of 1957, it was then that the aircraft received its distinctive red tail and wingtip markings, applied for operating over the Arctic Circle. The Valiants were based at Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska, where, in November 1961, the aircraft suffered technical problems during take-off. The take-off was aborted and the aircraft overshot the end of the runway, went down a steep slope and crossed a road only coming to a halt when it hit a railway embankment. The aircraft was totally destroyed by fire, the crew only surviving because the forward fuselage was separated from the rest of the wreckage. WZ399 was a PR variant of the Valiant, fitted with a number of powerful cameras in its bomb bay giving it a useful photo reconnaissance capability. However, the advent of powerful surface to air missiles made this role more and more hazardous, eventually causing the Valiant to be phased out in favour of the higher flying Canberra.

The latest Dragon Armor new item is a 1/72 scale replica of a German 8.8cm Flak 36 gun. The famous weapon is finished in camouflage suitable for North Africa. Originally an antiaircraft weapon, the “88” was one of the most famous weapons of WWII. One variant was the Flugzeugabwehrkanone (Flak) 36, which was in its element when serving as an anti-tank cannon. It had a two-piece barrel for easier replacement, and a heavier Sd.Anh.202 carriage that meant it could fire without being emplaced if necessary. The 7.4-tonne gun could be readied for action in just 2.5 minutes. Muzzle velocity was 820m/ and it was particularly deadly against enemy tanks, especially in the type of long-range encounters that occurred in North Africa. Dragon Armor’s newest depiction of the Flak 36 shows a weapon in service with the 10th Panzer Division in Tunisia, 1943. This division had been rushed to North Africa in late 1942 after the Allied landings under Operation Torch. The division had some successes against ‘green’ US Army units, including the Battle of Kasserine Pass in 1943. The gun on its cruciform platform is painted in a typical sand and green camouflage scheme. Of interest is the barrel that’s still painted in a panzer gray color. This was a legendary weapon of WWII, and Dragon’s model is accomplished in both its level of detail and desert finish.

IJN Type 2, Ka-Mi, Amphibious Tank (Combat Version), The 5th Naval Ground Base Guard (II), Saipan June 1944. Dragon earlier produced a simply stunning 1/35 scale Smart Kit of the Japanese Type 2 “Ka-Mi” amphibious tank, and now the company has used it as a platform to create a 1/72 Dragon Armor version. The Type 2 was the first amphibious tank used by the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN). It was designed for Japanese landing forces performing amphibious invasions of Pacific islands that didn’t have regular port facilities. Production commenced in 1942 and a total of 184 Type 2 amphibious tanks were made, although the design was really too late to participate in Japan’s island-hopping campaign. When used in water, large pontoons were attached to the glacis plate and rear deck to give it a top speed of 10km/h. These pontoons could be shed as soon as it reached land. The turret featured a 3.7cm Type 1 gun and coaxial Type 97 machine gun. Dragon Armor’s 1/72 scale model is extremely accurate, as it’s based on measurements taken from a surviving tank on Peleliu (present-day Palau). The tank is shown without its flotation pontoons, and it represents a vehicle from the 5th Naval Base Ground Guard (II). This unit was based in Saipan in the Mariana Islands, and it was heavily involved in the pivotal fighting there from 15 June-9 July 1944. Although it’s a very small model, it’s rich with detail. The vehicle’s period “battleship gray” color tone is authentically reproduced, as are the eye-catching IJN flags painted on the turret. This is a swimmingly good miniature of a fascinating subject!

Churchill Mk.IV, 4th Battalion Grenadier Guards, France 1944. The Churchill, referred to officially as the Tank, Infantry, Mk IV (A22), was named after the British prime minister at the time of its design in WWII. The tank was heavily armored and it featured a long chassis with long track runs that enabled it to cross difficult terrain. The first Churchills were hastily churning off Vauxhall production lines in June 1941, within a year of the tank’s design in the aftermath of the humiliating Allied defeat in Europe. Various improvements occurred, with the Churchill Mk IV variant featuring a cast turret instead of the all-welded turret found on the visually similar Mk III. Its main armament was a QF 6 pounder gun. Weighing in at approximately 40 tonnes, the Churchill had a particularly slow top speed. The Mk IV was the most numerically common model of the Churchill, with 1,622 tanks produced.

Flakpanzer 341 mit 2cm Flakvierling, Germany 1945. At the start of WWII, the Luftwaffe ruled the skies, but this dominance was gradually overturned as the war progressed. This led to a dire need for more antiaircraft vehicles for ground forces, and early efforts at producing a Flakpanzer centered on the Panzer IV chassis. However, the famous German Panther medium tank was also used as a platform for developmental work, with the Coelian perhaps being the best-known example. In May 1943, a proposed Rheinmetall design showed two pairs of Vierling MG151/20 antiaircraft cannons mounted in a Turm Panther II. This turret was heavily armored and it featured the pairs of cannons offset from each other and mounted at different heights. This early Flakpanzer design never advanced much further…except in terms of Dragon Armor’s superb new 1/72 scale model that shows it in fully finished form and with an intriguing camouflage scheme!

1/72 T-34/85 Chinese Volunteer Army, Korea 1950 - Korean War 60th Anniversary Limited Edition, China entered the Korean War on October 19, 1950, and Chinese forces did not completely withdraw until 1958. To avoid any official war with the USA, Chinese soldiers fought under the auspices of the Chinese People’s Volunteer Army (PVA), even though they were all members of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA). The initial assault by 270,000 PVA troops on October 25, 1950 caught the UN completely by surprise. One of the armored vehicles that China deployed during the Korean War was the Soviet-designed T-34/85 tank. Indeed, it was the most powerful armored vehicle the communist side fielded during this brutal conflict. Last year, on the 60th anniversary of the Korean War, Dragon Armor released two 1/72 scale models. These were highly accurate replica M4A3E8(76W) Sherman tanks from the US side of the Korean War. Now, Dragon Armor has released a tank from the opposing side. This fully built-up T-34/85 bears authentic markings of the PVA. While Dragon Armor has released versions of the T-34/85 before, up till now they have all been in Soviet markings. This latest tank is thus all the more exceptional with its Chinese ownership and tactical markings. With full detail replicated in miniature, and with an amazingly well-crafted paint finish and weathering effects, this impressive T-34/85 is ready to take on its UN foes on the troubled Korean Peninsular!

VK.45.02(P)V, Germany 1945. Dr. Porsche was an important figure in terms of German armored fighting vehicle development during WWII. Unfortunately, not all his ideas met with success, with the VK4501(P) being a prime example. After its failure, he nevertheless designed an updated version known as the VK.45.02(P). He actually proposed five different versions, with four different types of engine and both forward- and rear-mounted turrets. The heavy tank turret was designed by Krupp to mount an 8.8cm KwK43 L/71 gun, and it featured a rounded front for better ballistic qualities. Production of the VK.45.02(P) was authorized in April 1942 and 200 vehicles were to be produced. Again, however, Dr. Porsche was stymied by a too ambitious automotive design, as the tank’s 10-cylinder engine was unproven and complicated. In November 1942 the whole contract was rescinded and the 57-ton VK.45.02(P) was consigned to the fate of being another ‘paper panzer’!

Dragon Armor is going to release a mightily impressive 1/72 scale VK.45.02(P)H prototype. It has the Porsche turret, which was later assigned to the Tiger II, mounted well to the rear of the hull to produce a most unique profile. The model is finished in a typical late-war camouflage scheme of two colors, this being punctuated by the barest of extra markings in the form of Balkenkreuz. The VK.45.02(P) is beautifully painted and weathered, and the detail on the heavy tank prototype is very complete. This Porsche prototype offers collectors something new and different to add to their panzer forces.
