Victory at Midway by Stan Stokes.


Victory at Midway by Stan Stokes.

The SBD (Slowly but Deadly) Dauntless dive bomber was one of the most effective combat aircraft of WWII. Flown in large numbers by the USN throughout the war, the SBD was responsible for the destruction of a significant tonnage of enemy ships. During the Battle of Midway, SBDs surprised three of the Imperial Japanese Navy carriers. Caught off guard on June 4th 1942 with their fighter cover searching for low flying torpedo bombers, and with the decks of their carriers littered with aircraft being refitted for another strike, Dauntless aircraft from the Enterprise and Yorktown attack and destroy the three carriers.

USS Yorktown at the Battle of Midway by Anthony Saunders		 Brimming with overconfidence, few on board the Japanese carrier Sōryū noticed the SBD Dauntless bombers gathering overhead. Within a matter of minutes a few courageous US Navy pilots would change the course of history. Anthony Saunders' new action-packed painting recreates the scene from the Battle of Midway as the SBD Dauntless pilots pull out of their death-defying dives having delivered their 1000lb bombs perfectly on target with three direct hits on the Japanese carrier. Already there is utter chaos aboard the Sōryū as exploding ammunition and igniting fuel erupt onto the flight deck from the hangars below. Secondary explosions rip through the ship, fires rage beyond control and her hull shudders to contain the violent inferno. The Sōryū is doomed.
