SECOND HAND – Wings of Glory – Douglas A-24B Banshee (Ruet)

$11.14

This Second Hand condition item is unbroken with opened and complete (manually checked by Evan) cards. Cosmetic damage may exist on the box, and is likely quite scuffed. Sometimes these items have never been played with, simply opened and admired and returned to the box by the original owner. Other items the cards show some wear but no damage. Rest assured all cards are complete and in decent condition. Typically this stock exists from collections I’ve bought that were not completely as described, from local players of the game who I’m assisting. If you purchase a 2nd hand item and notice any breakages or damage that I missed, please contact me to discuss a solution! Its very important to me that you feel positive about your purchase of these quite rare items.

Description

The Douglas SBD Dauntless was the US Navy’s main carrier-borne scout plane and dive-bomber, and was a good match in combat against the faster, but lightly armored Japanese fighters. Able to carry a substantial bomb load, the Dauntless proved to be very effective in sinking Japanese ships, and it earned glory during the famous Battle of Midway. The SBD-5 was the definitive model of the series, with an increased ammunition capacity and a more powerful engine than its predecessors had. It was also produced in a land-based variant, the A-24 Banshee.
