Squadron Signal SBD Dauntless In Action - Comprehensive Photo Reference

Part of the acclaimed "In Action" series, this volume provides comprehensive photographic coverage and detailed information about the aircraft that played a pivotal role in turning the tide of the Pacific War.

About the SBD Dauntless

The Douglas SBD (Scout Bomber Douglas) Dauntless was the U.S. Navy's main carrier-based dive bomber from mid-1940 through mid-1944. This rugged and reliable aircraft achieved legendary status at the Battle of Midway in June 1942, where SBD squadrons sank four Japanese aircraft carriers in a single day, fundamentally changing the course of the Pacific War. The Dauntless served with distinction throughout the Pacific theater, earning a reputation as one of the most effective dive bombers ever built.
