Five minutes over Midway changed the war. This is the aircraft that did it.
This 1:72 diecast Douglas SBD-2 Dauntless honors the dive bomber that struck the decisive blow at the Battle of Midway.
The Aircraft
The SBD Dauntless was a sturdy, accurate dive bomber that could take hits and keep flying. At Midway, its crews delivered one of the most consequential attacks in naval history.
