Limited release model that features fine, recessed panel lines, film instruments and many brass photoetched parts. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions. A total of 125 Glen submarine-based seaplanes were built between 1941 and 1943, when they were replaced by the Aichi M6A1 Seiran. The first operational Glen mission was on December 17, 1941 when I-7 launched her aircraft for a dawn reconnaissance over Pearl Harbor to assess the damage done in the December 7th attack. In September of 1942, Warrant Officer Fujita took off in his Glen from I-25 and became the only aircraft to ever bomb the continental United States when he dropped phosphorus bombs in two attacks on the Oregon coast. Decals for both of these aircraft are included.
