CFS2/FS2002/FS2004
Martin Mariner PMB-3 US Navy.
The Navy was happy enough with their PBM-1s to order 379 improved
"Model 162Bs" or "PBM-3s" in the fall of 1940,
with the ultimate quantity being about twice that number. The government
helped finance construction of a new Martin plant at Middle River,
Maryland, to build the machines. By Jim Jacobson. 4.1MB |

CFS2/FS2002/FS2004
Martin Mariner XPBM-1 Blue Grey
The XPBM-1 prototype first flew on 18 February 1939. It used three-bladed
propellers and was initially unarmed, fitted only with dummy turrets.
Flight tests showed that the prototype suffered from tail flutter,
leading to the redesign of the tail assembly. The flat horizontal
tailplane was changed to a distinctive dihedral configuration whose
angle matched that of the gull wings. The tailfins remained perpendicular
to the horizontal tailplane, giving them an inward cant. The prototype
remained in use for armament tests during the war under the designation
of "XPBM-1A". By Jim Jacobson. 4.5MB |

CFS2/FS2002/FS2004
Martin Mariner PBM-3C.
The "PBM-3C", with initial rollout in late 1942 and a total
of 274 built. It featured greater crew armor protection, twin gun
front and dorsal turrets, an improved tail turret that retained a
single gun, and the ASV radar and dome, though it appears that not
all PBM-3Cs had the radar. Apparently many PBM-3Cs were fitted with
an underwing searchlight in the field. By Jim Jacobson. 6.6MB |
