Next American Fighter

[Wmaker]

Later models of the Hawk had, depending on the version, 30cals in the wings or 7mm in the wings and the nose guns were both .50cal.

All the Hawks from the French order, including the "later models" were delivered with rifle calibre fuselage guns, not with HMGs. French used the 7.5mm calibre but as the Brits got the remainder of the order, they replaced them with 7.9mm calibre MGs.

Kinda looks like a jug

P-36 was a precussor to the P-47 and was made by the same company.

curtiss = p-36

republic = p-47

ya...i can see where that would be the same company...

But, but, they "look" the same. They both have radial engines. Didn't they make the 190 too?

 

Lagg3(water cooled v-engine)--> La5(radial engine)--> La7

It evolved into the P-40 if anything...

Great minds think alike Shifty  You must be getting a bit slower in your old age though.  I brought up the "Mohawk" a few days ago in my updated wishlist thread for all the same reasons

Darn very sorry Dan... Yes I am getting older, probably why I missed your post.  

Ack Ack I guess I'm not getting any smarter either.

I'm sorry bout that guys, It looks like the P47 undoubtedly, I have read a website on the complete history of the P47 and looking so much like it I assumed that it was the earliest model that was described in detail on the website.

My mistake 

[Karnak]

Ki-43-II with only 1x7mm and 1x12.7mm option loadout would be best. And maybe a Ki-43-I with lower horsepower and 2-blade prop for early war as well. Definitely would be great to have!

(note: I only specify the guns load because it only really had the one setup based on some findings I posted about a while back)

Findings which we pointing out to you pertained only to the Ki-43-I.

You subsequently ignored us, stating we were wrong despite having no evidence to support your position.

I've never thought it to look like a P-47. To me they always appeared as radial engined P-40s.
