Everyone knows the quality of AM kits.  This is no exception.  Very little was needed to convert a USAAF B-25D to a Marine PBJ-1D.  The major change was the removal of the ventral turret and the addition of the an/aps 2 radar pod (these where present in earlier D's) later a radar pod was either added to the wing or nose (hose nose) for better coverage.   The Mitchell was built OOB with little extras (belts from my parts box and the radar pod from styrene).  All in all this was a joy to build and research.
