The largest user of the A-20 Havocs was the Russian Air Force. Over 3000 of all types were sent via lend-lease to Russia. The Russians used them extensively in the ground attack role, in particular the battle for Stalingrad. They were also used as torpedo bombers against the German naval units in the Black and Baltic seas. The Russian pilots praised the Havocs for their speed, maneuverability and rugged construction.
Designed primarily for FAC Jumbo Rubber scale events, this large, clean, stable twin engine attack bomber can garner a lot of scale and bonus points. In addition, the Havoc's size and wing loading allows easy adaptation to Free Flight Electric.. With today's light, inexpensive radio gear, this model can also be flown as a two channel electric RC Twin. Imagine being in control of your own attack bomber!
