Historical information
The Curtiss SB2C Helldiver was a carrier-based dive bomber aircraft produced for the United States Navy during World War II. It replaced the Douglas SBD Dauntless in US Navy service. The SB2C was much faster than the SBD it replaced.
Crew nicknames for the aircraft included the Big-Tailed Beast (or just the derogatory Beast), Two-Cee and Son-of-a-Bitch 2nd Class (after its designation and partly because of its reputation for having difficult handling characteristics). Neither pilots nor aircraft carrier skippers seemed to like it.
The SB2C-4 was SB2C-1, but fitted with wing racks for eight 5 in (127 mm) rockets or 1,000 lb (454 kg) bombs, 2,045 built.

Если кто ищет модель посложней, то это именно она!
На мой взгляд даже оба unkers Ju 88 уступают Helldiver по количеству деталей на квадратный сантиметр. Притом у данной модели как мне кажется и упростить особо нечего, все на своих местах.
Притом проработано все до малейших деталей как внутри так и снаружи. Добавим сюда возможность сделать модель с поднятым крылом (меньше места займет ;)) полный комплект подвесного вооружения: бомбы и ракеты. Все подижные детали на оригинале присутствуют и на модели.
Великолепная полиграфия 14 листов с выкройками и 10 страниц схем сборки тираж 4000экз. Модель стоит своих денег однозначно.
