The Consolidated PBY Catalina was considered obsolete by the United States Navy in 1939. However, the "Cat" turned out to be the best anti-sub aircraft available at the start of the World War II Battle of the Atlantic because of it's range, capacity, and durability and was employed by many countries for anti-submarine warfare. This print features a U.S. Navy PBY-5A Catalina in early WWII markings engaged in a running battle with the scourge of the North Atlantic - a German type VII U-Boat.
