Cars named after (or same as) WW2 and 1950s aircraft?

[Admiral Beez]

Of course there's the Triumph Spitfire and Ford Mustang, but can we name other postwar cars named after or the same as WW2 aircraft? For example, there's Armstrong Siddeley's preference for naming their cars after Hawker Siddeley ww2 aircraft: Lancaster, Hurricane, Typhoon/Tempest and Whitley.

Here's a 1951 Whitley for sale.

As an aside, it's noteworthy that in 1951 when the above car was produced, the USA market was making these:

I can think of a few, Buick Wildcat, Pontiac Tempest, Plymouth Fury, Pontiac Catalina (But in this case I think both the Car and the Plane where named after the Island off California), Dodge Hellcat, & Dodge Avenger off the top of my head.

There was a Ford (UK) Corsair in the '60s; and Lincoln recently released an eponymous SUV.

My plan is to get "pilot" (Honda) and "navigator" (Lincoln) emblems for my van doors' exterior to go with my sticker on the passenger dash.
Get in
Sit down
Shut up
Hold on
