HK Models 1:32 Avro Lancaster B Mk.III Dambuster – HKM-01E011 **This item is pick up in store only** The Avro Lancaster was one of the RAF’s mainstay aircraft of WWII and it was such a capable design that it was modified to conduct special missions. Perhaps the most famous of these was the mission to destroy hydroelectric dams which powered Germany’s main industrial region. Sir Barnes Wallis created a bomb which would skip across the surface of the dam’s reservoir, sink next to the dam wall, then explode to breech the dam with its shock waves. 19 Lancasters were modified to carry this special bomb and these Dambusters conducted a successful attack on three of the dams on May 17, 1943.
