The Academy 12533 USAAF B-17E Flying Fortress “Pacific Theater” 1/72 Scale Plastic Model Kit captures the rugged beauty and legendary power of one of World War II’s most iconic heavy bombers. The B-17E variant marked a major evolution of Boeing’s Flying Fortress, featuring a redesigned tail for improved defense and extended range for long Pacific missions. This version served with distinction in the early stages of the Pacific War, conducting daring bombing and reconnaissance operations across vast ocean distances.

This highly detailed 1/72 scale kit features finely engraved panel lines, a fully detailed cockpit and crew stations, and accurate representations of gun turrets, bomb bays, and landing gear. The kit’s clear parts allow for excellent visibility of interior detail, while optional position parts let builders display the aircraft in flight or on the ground.

Authentic Pacific Theater markings are included, allowing modelers to depict aircraft used in operations across the Solomon Islands, New Guinea, and other key WWII campaigns. The model’s large wingspan and intricate detail make it an impressive centerpiece for any WWII aircraft collection.

Perfect for intermediate to advanced builders, the Academy 1/72 B-17E Flying Fortress offers a rewarding and historically rich modeling experience, celebrating the bravery and endurance of the crews who flew “The Flying Fortress” in the Pacific Theater.
