the surface trying to finish off their prey while
conserving torpedoes. 16"x 11?" signed and
numbered limited edition print. |

Cats Have Claws
Don Feight. The Consolidated PBY Catalina was considered

of it's range, capacity, and durability and was employed
by many countries for ASW. This print features a PBY-5A
Catalina in early WWII U.S. markings engaged in a
running battle with the scourge of the North Atlantic
- a German type VII U-Boat. Limited edition of 500

P-Boat: One, U-Boat:
Nothing
Don Feight. The big, tough Martin flying boats were
already in service prior to America's entry into WWII
and were quickly adapted to the role of anti-submarine
warfare against the Nazi U-boat wolfpacks in early
1942, but were used in a variety of other roles that
included - search and rescue, transport, electronic
warfare, reconnaissance, and patrol. Print depicts
a Martin PBM Mariner over calm seas attacking a submerged
U-boat with a low-level depth charge run. The airplane
carried its ordnance in a unique bomb bay located
in the engine nacelles, and it had the capability
of carrying torpedoes under the wings. Signed and
numbered, limited edition of 500, 28"x 22"
print. |
