Douglas P-70 Night Fighter Model in 1/48 Scale

The Italeri 2724S kit recreates the Douglas P-70, a converted A-20 Havoc adapted for night interception during World War II. This model highlights the aircraft's night-fighting role with accurate radar fairing and under-fuselage armament, offering a focused build for collectors and history-minded modellers.

In real service the P-70 used twin Wright R-2600 Cyclone engines and could exceed 500 km/h, reflecting the type's operational capabilities. The kit mirrors key features such as the glazed nose and radar antenna, plus the detailed representation of the four 20 mm cannons mounted under the fuselage.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Model Dimensions: 30.4 cm
  • Assembly: Requires assembly and painting
  • Features: Detailed radar and armament
The kit contains all injection-moulded plastic components, clear parts for the glazed nose, decal sheets and step-by-step assembly instructions. Paint and cement are not supplied.
This model is best for builders with intermediate experience because of fine cockpit detail and small undercarriage parts that require careful fitting and painting.
Consider a simple diorama with a night-airfield base and subtle weathering to highlight the radar and cannon bays. A clear stand can also emphasise the aircrafts silhouette in a display case.
