The concept of a shipborne bomber capable of carrying a nuclear bomb was made real when North American Aviation rolled out its AJ-1 Savage in 1948. It was powered by two radial engines and a single turbojet in the fuselage, aft of the wings. The Savage was a big aircraft, about 10 feet larger in length and span than the U.S. Army B-25 Mitchells that launched from the USS Hornet during the famous Tokyo raid in 1942.
Roden’s 1/72 scale AJ-1 Savage represents an early production aircraft, with dihedral to the horizontal stabilizers, a larger rudder, and a “birdcage” style canopy. Judging from the parts layout, I suspect Roden will issue a later AJ-2 or AJ-2P version. The decal sheet provides markings for three gloss sea-blue AJ-1 Savages.
