The B-24J Million Dollar Baby 1/163 Diecast Model offered by Daron Worldwide Trading pays homage to the B-24J Superfortress, a four-engine, propeller-driven heavy bomber that played a pivotal role in World War II. As one of the largest aircraft used during the war, the B-24J featured advanced elements including remote-controlled machine gun turrets and a pressurized cabin, enabling high-altitude flight. Named "Jack's Hack" after its pilot Jack Volkert, this aircraft was acquired by the New England Air Museum in 1973 and underwent meticulous restoration starting in 1998, carried out in collaboration with the 58th Bomb Wing - the first unit to deploy the B-24J in combat during World War II. Measuring 6 inches in length and 8.25 inches in wingspan, this model captures the essence of the historic B-24J.
