Vought SB2U Vindicator - FD Scale

Description

An older FD scale drawing of several Vought SB2U Vindicator dive bombers.  These were the US Navy's dive bomber during the early months of World War II, but they were quickly replaced with the Douglas SBD Dauntless whenever possible.  Vindicators served during the Battle of Midway with several Scouting and Bombing squadrons.

These profiles show the early USN marking scheme that designates the squadron number, type, and aircraft number in the squadron (e.g., "3-B-10" is the tenth aircraft of Bombing Squadron 3 (VB-3)).

All original work.  Do not reproduce without following the Shipbucket.com Fair Use Agreement (requires preservation of the scale bar, watermark, and credits in the original on any derivative works).
