Although not restricted to monoplanes, the winning designs were modern low-wing monoplanes, including the Vought SB2U Vindicator. Entering production in 1937, several variants served, with the SB2U-3 seeing combat at Midway, where it proved outdated. France ordered 40 V-156F versions in 1939, lacking certain U.S. features and equipped with French systems. Assigned to escadrilles AB-1 and AB-3, they initially trained for carrier Béarn but operated from land bases. Heavy losses occurred in May 1940, with final missions flown in June against Italian targets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore to read about the KIT \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.scalemates.com\/fr\/kits\/azur-a084-v-156f--112508\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e, thanks to scalemates, a Belgian Scale modeling database\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Azur","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53856676413786,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/3015\/9446\/files\/IMG_6245_ce4933d7-ecd7-46c1-bdbd-90ea76a7b703.JPG?v=1774084651","url":"https:\/\/aviation.brussels\/products\/maquette-a-monter-v-156f-vindicator-in-french-navy-service-azur-n-a084-1-48-like-new-inside-unopened","provider":"aviation.brussels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
