Douglas Sbd3 Dauntless (GUI1003)

The Douglas SBD-3 Dauntless dive bomber scale model kit recreates the famous World War II U.S. Navy aircraft in its carrier-based role. With a 31-inch wingspan, it's a striking centerpiece for display and for hobbyists who want to build a faithful representation of this iconic plane.

Historically, the SBD-3 Dauntless operated from carriers such as Lexington, Yorktown, Wasp, and Enterprise during the Coral Sea and Midway battles, contributing to the Allied effort by blunting the Japanese advance in the Pacific. This kit is designed for enthusiasts who value a historically faithful build and a compelling tribute to naval aviation history, pairing a dramatic silhouette with the story of America’s early air‑sea battles.
