The North American B-25 Mitchell
bomber had a wingspan of 67'
7". Fuselage length was 52' 11".
Normally during WWII this version of
the B-25 carried four .50 cal. machine
guns in two revolveing turrets and
one in the nose. The aircraft flown
in the famous Doolittle raid had their
lower turrets replaced by additional
fuel tanks and two "dummy broom-
stick guns" extended from the tail to
discourage attack by enemy aircraft.
The markings on your Revell Doolittle
Raider B-25 bomber represent those
used on the actual plane that Lt. Col.
Doolittle flew himself during the raid.
Your Revell B-25 Mitchell bomber
model includes revolving turrets and
elevating guns, realistic details and
authentic waterslide decal markings.
* Study the assembly drawings.
* Each plastic part is identified by a number.
* In the assembly drawings, some parts will be marked by
a star (★) to indicate chrome
plated plastic.
* For better paint and decal adhesion, wash the plastic
parts in a mild detergent solution. Rinse and let air dry.
* Check the fit of each piece before
cementing in place.
* Use only cement for polystyrene plastic.
* Scrape plating and paint from areas
to be cemented.
* Allow paint to dry thoroughly before
handling parts.
* Any unused parts may be discarded.
DECAL APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cut desired decal from sheet.
2. Dip decal in water for a few seconds.
3. Place wet decal on paper towel.
4. Wait until decal is movable on paper backing.
5. Place decal in position on model, face up and slide
backing away.
6. Press out air bubbles with a soft damp cloth.
7. Milkiness that may appear is for better decal adhesion
and will dry clear. Wipe away any excess adhesive.
8. Do not touch decal until fully dry.
9. Allow the decals 48 hours to dry before applying clear
coat.
NOTE: Decals are compatible with
setting solutions or solvents.
