Overview

The Martin PBM Mariner was a versatile flying boat that served the U.S. Navy and Allied forces during World War II and beyond. Known for its long-range capabilities, the PBM-5A variant was an amphibious aircraft, giving it increased flexibility. It played key roles in patrol, anti-submarine warfare, and search-and-rescue missions. This model kit features markings for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), who also operated the aircraft.

Now, Academy has recreated this piece of military history in 1/72 scale, ready for you to build and display.
