Yes. The first single seat fighter for NAA was the NA-50 for Peru. Second was the NA-50A for Siam, which became the NA-68/P-64 when the USAAF took them over. The next design in chronological order was the NA-50B, which became the NA-73/P-51 Mustang. The NAA designation system has always been a source of confusion with the charge numbers and customer numbers being quite different in many cases.Was the NA-50B the aircraft proposed by NAA to the British Purchasing Commission, the NA-73 being the production design?
Unfortunately, I can't confirm that except by reference to the drawing, but that engine was certainly in NAA's go-to file. It was installed in the XAT-6E prototype and was nominated for the proposed NJ-2 Navy version of the BT-9 trainer.The SC-46 looks like it was supposed to powered by a Ranger air cooled V-12?
