1/48 Douglas P-70 Night Fighter Scale Reproduction

The Italeri 2724S model portrays the Douglas P-70, a night-fighter adaptation of the A-20 Havoc used in World War II. This kit emphasises the aircrafts night-fighting equipment and under-fuselage weaponry, making it appealing to those who recreate historical military aircraft.

The real P-70 was powered by twin Wright R-2600 Cyclone engines and achieved speeds over 500 km/h, underlining its operational role. The kit reproduces the characteristic glazed nose, radar installation and the set of four 20 mm cannons fitted under the fuselage.
