Tamiya 31515 1/700 B-25 Mitchell Bomber Set - Detailed Small Scale

The Tamiya 31515 1/700 B-25 Mitchell set reproduces the twin-tail bombers involved in the Doolittle Raid, crafted for precise small scale modelling. The components are engineered to show the aircraft silhouette and key features, allowing modellers to assemble historically recognisable pieces launched from USS Hornet.

Historical Background and Model Features

The B-25 Mitchell is best known for the April 1942 raid which had a notable impact on wartime morale. The kit supplies enough parts for 16 aircraft so collectors can build a modest fleet. Included decals permit accurate placement of national markings on both wings and fuselage to enhance realism.

Ideal for Collection Displays

This 1/700 scale set is suited to collectors who want compact but detailed aircraft for cabinets and dioramas focused on naval aviation or World War II engagements. The small scale keeps the models manageable without losing essential form.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic
  • Includes: Decals for national markings
  • Part Count: 16 aircraft
This kit is aimed at intermediate modellers comfortable with small parts and fine detail. Novices can build it with care, but expect to work slowly and use magnification for tiny components.
Wash parts in warm soapy water to remove mould release, then dry thoroughly. Light sanding of sprue marks and a primer coat will help paint adhesion at 1/700 scale.
At this scale aftermarket upgrades are limited, but fine detailing with paint, careful weathering and aftermarket decals can significantly improve realism.
