Developed just before the outbreak of the Second World War, the Douglas SBD Dauntless was the US Navy's primary dive bomber throughout the opening salvos of the War.

Also finding service over Guadalcanal, the Dauntless continued to be used against various Japanese targets. By the end of the war the Dauntless had sunk more Japanese shipping that any other aircraft. It was the first US Navy plane to sink an enemy ship, a Japanese sub, in WWII just days after Pearl Harbour.

Airfix - SD.KFZ.222 and Kubelwagen, Reconnaissance Set - 1:76 (A02312)

 

Used by the reconnaissance battalions of the Panzer divisions, the Sd kfz222 performed well enough in countries with good road networks, like those in Western Europe. However, on the Eastern Front and North Africa, this class of vehicle was hampered by its relatively poor off-road performance. The Volkswagen Kübelwagen was a military vehicle designed by Ferdinand Porsche.
