P-Boat: One, U-Boat: Nothing
Aviation Art Print
Don Feight.
The big, tough
Martin flying boats were already in service prior to
America's entry into WWII and were quickly adapted
to the role of anti-submarine warfare against the
Nazi U-boat wolfpacks in early 1942, but were used
in a variety of other roles that included - search
and rescue, transport, electronic warfare,
reconnaissance, and patrol. Print depicts a Martin
PBM Mariner over calm seas attacking a submerged
U-boat with a low-level depth charge run. The
aircraft carried its ordnance in a unique bomb bay
located in the engine nacelles, and it had the
capability of carrying torpedoes under the wings.

P3C Orion 1/85 Model
Pre Built Molded Resin Model
While not a stealth aircraft, this plane us primarily used as an
electronics surveillance aircraft, hence, Spy Plane. Made of durable
molded resin, this 1/85 scale model measures 16 ¼"
in length and has a wingspan of 14". Hand painted and detailed,
model comes ready to display on the included mahogany base.
#0009362
Price: $169.00Webmasters Note: This is an identical
model of the P3 Spy plane that had collided with the Chinese Flown
MiG-25 near Hinan Island in April 2001. It was a crime on the Chinese
part because there is no way that this slow, clumsy aircraft could avoid
being hit by the extremely fast, nimble MiG-25 Jet Fighter.
Note 2: Look at the probe sticking out
of the back of this airplane. This is part of the aircraft's MAD gear
which stands for Magnetic Anomaly Detector. I detects minute variations
in the earths magnetic field caused by a ferrous (Iron) object such as a
submarine under the water. This version of the aircraft is used as an
Anti-Submarine aircraft. C. Jeff Dyrek
