Corgi The Aviation Archive Lockheed P-38J Droop Snoot "1944 Pathfinder" – Scale 1/72 – AA36602

A unique and lesser-known variant of the legendary P-38 Lightning, the Lockheed P-38J Droop Snoot played a vital role in precision bombing missions over Europe during World War II. This 1:72 scale die-cast model from Corgi’s prestigious Aviation Archive collection faithfully recreates the specially modified "Droop Snoot" version—distinguished by its glazed nose and bombardier’s station in place of the usual cannon armament.

Designated “1944 Pathfinder”, this aircraft led formations of fighter-bombers to key targets deep in enemy territory, relying on pinpoint accuracy and speed. Corgi’s model, AA36602, captures the sleek profile and historic presence of the aircraft in meticulous detail, featuring:

• Authentic WWII USAAF markings
• Glazed nose section with bombardier detail
• Optional landing gear positions
• Rotatable propellers and finely detailed twin booms
• Display stand included for in-flight showing

Whether you're a WWII aviation enthusiast, a Corgi collector, or simply appreciate unusual aircraft types, this P-38J Droop Snoot is a standout addition to any model collection.

Now available we only have one model – a rare opportunity to own a pathfinder of history.
