Historical Information

The P-40N Warhawk is one of the most popular versions of the American Curtiss P-40 fighter, widely used by the United States Army Air Forces and allied forces, including Australia, the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, and New Zealand. This aircraft played a key role on many fronts of World War II, from air battles over the Pacific, through the deserts of North Africa, to missions in China. It was particularly well-known for its participation with the so-called “Flying Tigers.” Its period of intensive use was 1943–1945, when the P-40N, thanks to increased engine power and numerous modifications, became one of the fastest variants of this fighter.
