Model Airplane Factory, makers of hand made model aircraft, presents to you our Lockheed PV Ventura mahogany bomber. The rich color paint scheme and markings of the Lockheed Ventura are cautiously painted to the assembled Lockheed PV Ventura mahogany model plane. Every Lockheed PV Ventura display military is a work of art. Multiple coats of clear lacquer is applied in PV Ventura display model bomber military to protect the exquisite artwork and provide an overall glossy finish. Lockheed Ventura airplane display includes hand-made armaments to represent real weapon loads based on the original Lockheed PV Ventura. The details of the Lockheed PV Ventura such as the insignia, logos, body number, and squadron are carefully and artistically painted in the PV Ventura mahogany model for precision.


The PV-1 Ventura, built by the Vega Aircraft Company division of Lockheed (hence the 'V' Navy manufacturer's letter that later replaced the 'O' for Lockheed), was a version of the Ventura built for the U.S. Navy (see Venturas in U.S. Navy service below). The main differences between the PV-1 and the B-34 were the inclusion of special equipment in the PV-1, adapting it to its patrol-bombing role. The maximum fuel capacity of the PV-1 was increased from 1345 gal to 1607 gal, to increase its range; the forward defensive armament was also reduced for this reason. The most important addition was of an ASD-1 search radar.
