We are so chuffed to add the Invader to our line-up on a stunning card by Beyond Visual Range (BVR). 

The Douglas A-26B Invader was a twin-engine attack aircraft designed as a fast, heavily armed replacement for the A-20 Havoc. First flown in 1942 and entering service in late 1944, the A-26B featured a solid nose packed with up to eight .50-caliber machine guns, making it highly effective in ground-attack, strafing, and bombing missions during World War II. Redesignated the B-26 in 1948, the Invader saw extensive combat in Korea as a night attack aircraft. Modernized versions even returned to action during the Vietnam War, giving the Invader the rare distinction of serving in three major conflicts and cementing its reputation as one of the finest piston-powered attack aircraft ever built.

JETs Vol. 26-18 has been cut from wing components that were remnants of the restoration of USAAF A-26B 41-39161. These components were acquired early in 2025 from a private collector. 

26-18 is offered in 4 variants: Thin - Single layer thick tags that featured raw aluminum on one side and green primer on the other, Riveted - tags featuring rivets, Trailing Edge - Double-sided tags featuring internal structure and exterior raw aluminum skin on both sides, and Structured - roughly .75" thick tags featuring heavy structural elements and fasteners. 

This release includes the option to customize your tag art. See the Custom Shop photo for examples. The Riveted and Structured are not offered in Color Printed.

For release day only (05 June 2026) all Thin tags ordered will receive a bonus etching on the back. Tags purchased with Color Printed or Sketch art will come with a Planform etch on the back. Tags purchased with Planform art will come with Sketch art on the back. 

All orders that contain 2+ A-26B items will receive a bonus A-26B holographic sticker. 

This run is limited to 300 total JETs.
