In preparation for painting my USN93, Barnegat (AVP-10) class small seaplane tenders, I was going through my files of photographs and noticed that the most-commonly pictured aircraft in conjunction with these ships was the Martin PBM Mariner. GHQ does not make a 1/2400-scale model of this aircraft.

Considering that USN93 contains only a single, destroyer-sized, ship in a package priced the same as significantly larger cruisers and merchant types it would have been nice if GHQ had included a PBM.

Perhaps GHQ would consider a package of US Navy patrol types: Lockheed PV1 Ventura or PV2 Harpoon, Consolidated PB4Y-2 Privateer, Martin PBM Mariner, and/or K-class blimp.

Been hoping to see a Mariner for a while, and the Privateer would be nice also.
