Description
This a 1/32 model kit of the early production B-17G.
During the early stage, many of the B-17G retained the tail gun section from the B-17F. This can be considered as a hybrid variation and perhaps kept the be2t from the F and the G variation. This is also the same variant that was used
On July 6, 1944 B17G, #42-102547 of 367th Bombardment Squadron of the 306th Bomb Group was named “Rose of York” and was christened by then, Princess Elizabeth. The 18 years old Princess was presented with 2 dozen of York roses at the ceremony. To commemorate the historical event, a resin figure of Princess Elizabeth is included as a FREE bonus gift.
