    Improvements to the P-39

    In the thread about a turbocharged P-36 there was some discussion about improvements to the P-39 - mainly armament and some suggestions about the engine. For armament it was thought that the M4 cannon could be replaced with a 20mm cannon or 0.50" HMG firing through the hub with 2 x 0.50"...

    P-39 vs P-40

    In the Which aircraft would you cancel? thread there was some support of the P-39. So why was the P-39 so favored in USSR, yet the P-40 so favored by the US, Britain, etc?

    P-29 or Spitfire wreck?

    Sorry about the error in the title: It should say P-39! I found this s picture when researching the U.S.Army in the North African Campaign. It was listed as a P-38 wreck but I think it is a P-39 Airacobra. I wondered if it is a Spitfire wreck but I'm leaning towards a P-39. It doesn't look...

    Rockets in 1942-1943?

    I have seen some vague references to P-40 Warhawks using 4.5 inch rockets in Africa and Burma. I have also heard that P39s were using rockets by the time of TORCH. I know Russian P39s had rockets by this time. While completely different: Does anyone know when the US 90mm AA gun was first...
