Indonesian Maritime Patrol Aircraft




I realised that I don't have any maritime patrol aircraft for my Indonesian naval force, which is a bit of an oversight as at least one is required for some of the scenarios in Naval Command. I did think of using an Il-28 or A-26 Invader, both of which I have already got, but that just didn't seem right. Instead, I've ordered a pack of two PBY Catalinas from Tumbling Dice to fill the gap, as the Indonesians had at least six of them for maritime patrol work amongst other things, although I'm not sure they were still operational by the 1960's? I've also ordered a few more Il-28's in case I change my mind, as well as some more helicopters and carrier jets for the Royal Navy. Unfortunately, it's far too cold in the garage for painting today but I'll be back at the workbench tomorrow.
