From my world war two tutorial series, make this aircraft in it's own tutorial here!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nugmb2SswVA 


The Short Sunderland was a British flying boat patrol bomber.  It was one of the most powerful and widely used flying boats of the second world war, 777 were built.

The Sunderland played a big part in the battle of the atlantic, bombing german U boats and picking up surviors at sea, it served in many different theatres of WW2.  The considerable number of machine guns in this well built aircraft made it hard to take out.  For example, in 1940, a single lone Sunderland was jumped on by 6 german Ju88 fighters, the sunderland shot down 2 and drove the rest off.  The Germans nicknamed this plane, 'the flying porcupine'.

One of my top 10 favourite WW2 aircraft, this is designed by myself, to 1:1 scale.  Take a look at more WW2 creations by me, at my youtube channel here! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoqShLf9darvzmHuk6Y3d0A
