Why this aircraft matters
The Martin B-26 Marauder played a key role in the Mediterranean and European theatres. Operated by the 12th USAAF, it delivered precision strikes against enemy infrastructure and troop positions.
“Miss Arkansas,” flown by Lt Leo A Lampman, represents the later production B-26C variant, known for improved handling and crew confidence. Its nose art reflects the personal connection crews had with their aircraft during long combat tours.
How to use it
