Not often we see a 1/48 B-29 sheet so this one is most welcome. It is for one of the 509 Composite Group aircraft. Naturally, only Monogram makes this behemoth and you'll need to be sure that you have Hamilton Standard props for this one. I also think that all the aircraft in this group were without turrets, though I'm not positive of that. I do know that those modified to carry the atomic bomb were without fuselage guns and had but the tail turret installed.

The sheet carries data markings as well as the unique markings for the aircraft. Insignia will have to come from the kit or some other source.
