The What is it? Game

[buffnut453]

S-3 Viking? It's about the only one we haven't mentioned...he said with naiive optimism!

 

[GrauGeist]

I almost said PV2 Neptune, but I think those are only used as fire-bombers now :/

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Nobody has hit it yet. I can't give the crafts role or it'll give it away. It is a jet.

 

[wuzak]

EA-6B Prowler?

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

And we have a WINNER!! Way to go Wuzak!

 

[GrauGeist]

Damn...I was actually thinking A6 Intruder, that would have been close, but no cigar

Good challenge, Aaron and way to go, wuzak!

 

[wuzak]

It was the clue that if the role was revealed it would make it obvious narrowed the options!

 

[Grampa]

Good challenge you gave us.

 

[wuzak]

See if this is as sneaky as Aaron's....

 

[meatloaf109]

Yeah, that was a good one!
That shadow looks interesting...

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Thanks guys, and Wuzak,.......I have no clue.

 

[GrauGeist]

That *almost* looks like the intake on an A-36 Apache or an early P-40, if the image were turned 90° clockwise

(I know it's not, but that was my first impression)

 

[wuzak]

That is correct...it isn't a P-40 or A-36....


But it did see service in the USAAF.

 

[wuzak]

A different angle on the first clue.

Another clue.

 

[norab]

P-38 ?

 

[wuzak]

Sorry, no. But it is a twin.

 

[Airframes]

DH Mosquito PRXVI

 

[Grampa]

If that plane is complete made in USA during WW2, then I whould guess the engine on foto could be an Ranger, perhaps the L-440 series, but the only twin-engined plane that carring this type of engine I know is the Grumman G-44 Widgeon. so I guess on that plane.

 

[wuzak]

Airframes has it...

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Way to go Terry!!!!
