My first article on ARC is the Monogram 1/48 B-24J Liberator, this particular aircraft I built is a slight variant being the "L" model, it served with the Royal Australian Air Force in 1945 with 25 Squadron.

They were primarily based at Pearce AB in Western Australia but also rested at Cunderdin, a small country town located 150km east of Perth. Their primary role was bombing raids and maritime patrols in the Dutch East Indies staged through airfields in the Northern Territory.  The Squadron was disbanded 1946.
