Description
This North American B-25J Mitchell represents USAAF 42nd BG, 390th BS Crusaders aircraft “Heavenly Body” at Sansapor, New Guinea in 1944. Tied to Pacific theatre operations, it captures the rugged twin-engine bomber in a scheme linked to one of the most recognisable American medium bombers of the war.
A standout addition to any WWII USAAF collection, especially for displays focused on Pacific theatre aircraft and named wartime bombers. Ideal for display and for collectors who enjoy larger multi-engine subjects with strong historical identity.
