How many survivng Helldivers are there?

Off the top of my head, I can think of the following:

SB2C-5 with the CAF
SB2C-3 with Yanks
A-25 with Helldivers, under restoration for the US Air Force Museum
SB2C-5 project with Kecin Smith, currently for sale.

Also one -5 in Bangkok with the RTAF Museum and one with the Greek Air Force Museum... (also off top of head... )

It was a good idea, it just didn't work.

the Smithsonian has a -5 also. It was (is) at the Naval Museum.
