The TBM\/TBF Avenger, designed as a torpedo bomber for the United States Navy, made its combat debut in 1942 during the Battle of Midway. It was intensively used in all theaters of war until the end of the conflict. Produced by Grumman (TBF) and the Eastern Aircraft Division of General Motors (TBM), it became renowned for its heavy armament, excellent payload capacity, and durability, forming the backbone of the American carrier aviation fleet up to the 1950s. The Hobby Boss model represents the TBF-1C variant, equipped with more modern wing-mounted armament and upgraded radio equipment, which increased both combat effectiveness and crew safety.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eTechnical Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1:48\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCountry of operation: United States of America; Allied carriers (United Kingdom, New Zealand)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eService period: World War II, with some units remaining in active service until the early 1950s\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic (polystyrene)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eTransparent components: cockpit glazing; precise surface detailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eModel requires assembly and painting\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNumber of parts: approx. 150 (depending on configuration)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eLength when assembled: approx. 270 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eWingspan: approx. 366 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eOutstanding Features of the Hobby Boss 80314 Set\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRichly detailed cockpit and interiors of the radio operator's and gunner's compartments\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDetailed armament: torpedo, bombs, wing-mounted machine guns, and turret post\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eClearly defined panel lines and riveting details\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOptional movable control surfaces and folding wings\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eModel can be built in takeoff or parked configuration\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eDecals allow for historical paint schemes of the US Navy and other Allied users\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eCategory: Plastic model kit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWho is it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    This model is recommended for both intermediate and advanced model aircraft enthusiasts.
