Trumpeter SBU Scout Bomber 1:350 - kit description

This 1:350 plastic kit recreates the SBU Scout Bomber as a small-scale naval subject for display and diorama use.

The SBU Scout Bomber designation covers small naval scout-bombers used by United States naval aviation in the interwar and early wartime period. These aircraft combined reconnaissance tasks with light bombing capability and operated from carriers and shore airfields.

Assembly uses conventional small-scale modelling methods: parts supplied on multiple sprues will need trimming, fitting and glue. Surface details and panel lines are scaled accordingly; painting and finishing should follow the historical US NAVY schemes provided on the decal sheet.

  • Scale: 1:350
  • Assembly: plastic model kit
  • Total plastic parts: 72 pieces

A compact and useful addition to small-scale naval collections or carrier dioramas, offering period-correct markings and straightforward assembly.

How accurate is the kit for historical modelling?

The kit provides scaled surface detail and period markings appropriate to a 1:350 representation. For higher fidelity, modelers may add fine aftermarket parts or detailing.

Will this model scale visually with 1:350 ship models?

Yes. At 1:350 scale the aircraft is proportioned to complement 1:350 ship kits and can be placed on carrier decks for realistic scenes.

How many parts come in the kit and how are they organised?

There are 72 parts distributed over six sprues. Expect standard cleanup and careful assembly to retain small detail.

What are the finished measurements for planning displays?

The finished model is approximately 24.40 mm in length and 28.94 mm in width, so plan display spacing accordingly.

Is additional painting or aftermarket equipment required?

Painting and finishing are required to complete the model; the brief does not list any required aftermarket items, though extras can be added for enhanced detail.
