1/48 P-61B Black Widow
Since the Air Force of each country started paying attention to night bombing the bombing became more effective. To fight against the night bombing a series of night fighters were put into use. The Americans started their night fighter program in 1940. The Army use the P-70 Havoc and Beaufighter to fight with the Japanese until the first 45 P-61 Black Widow were in active service in October, 1943. With the birth of the more powerful Airborne Intercept radar, the SCR-720C, the P-61s of the Army began their upgrade to install this latest radar. The new type Black Widow with the SCR-720C were designated as P-61B. The type B length the nose section and reintroduced the dorsal turret on the late production.
