Designed as both a patrol aircraft and a bomber, it was widely used in the Pacific during World War II for anti-submarine warfare, coastal patrol, and reconnaissance missions. After the war, some aircraft were incorporated into civilian aviation or served in other countries, including Brazil and Japan. The PV-2 Harpoon was renowned for its increased bomb load and improved wing design compared to its predecessor.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eKit Contents and Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePrecisely crafted plastic parts, replicating the original in the finest details such as panel lines, cockpit, gun station, and landing gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOption to finish the model in various paint schemes according to historical US Navy markings\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHigh-detail sprues\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDecals with authentic insignia for at least two operational versions\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eClear step-by-step assembly instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    We recommend the Special Hobby 72093 PV-2 Harpoon to both enthusiasts of military aviation and collectors of WWII models.
