Curtiss P-40 N KittyHawk
This is my best fighter yet i took a month to build and its good in dogfights with its great maneuverability. Thanks to skua and Nickasaurus for helping with the wing camo and some slight Xml eddits. Credit to Agdynamics for the mouth. The Curtiss P-40 was a formidable fighter and ground attack aircraft in the right hands. Employed in theatres from China to New Guinea to the Aleutians to North Africa, P-40 variants had many names including the Tomahawk, Kittyhawk and Warhawk. The Kittyhawk was the name given by British Commonwealth air forces to the P-40E model and subsequent variants.The P-40 saw action with the Desert Air Force of the RAF in North Africa. Though not a first rate high altitude dogfighter, the Kittyhawk with its long range, bomb load and armour, became a formidable low-level fighter-bomber.Most know the P-40 as the mount of American General Clair Chenault's Flyng Tigers operating in China against the Japanese at the outset of the war. But, one of the greatest P-40 pilots anywhere was Canada's own W/C James "Stocky" Edwards who flew hundreds of successful Kittyhawk missions with 260 Squadron in the North African campaign. Edwards used his underrated Kittyhawk to shoot down Luftwaffe ace Otto Schulz, one of the most skilled pilots flying a supposed superior aircraft - the Messerschmitt Bf-109F. To honour this great Canadian pilot, the Vintage Wings of Canada P-40 is painted in the exact Desert Air Force markings of Edwards' 260 Squadron Kittyhawk.The Curtiss P-40 Warhawk is an American single-engined, single-seat, all-metal fighter and ground-attack aircraft that first flew in 1938. The P-40 design was a modification of the previous Curtiss P-36 Hawk which reduced development time and enabled a rapid entry into production and operational service. The Warhawk was used by most Allied powers during World War II, and remained in frontline service until the end of the war. It was the third most-produced American fighter, after the P-51 and P-47; by November 1944, when production of the P-40 ceased, 13,738 had been built,all at Curtiss-Wright Corporation's main production faciliti

Possibly definitely one of my favourite ww2 fighters I've stopped doing replicas but I do make some once and awhile of planes i really like like this one @Ihavenorealideawhatiamdoing
If you make another one of these, any chance it will be a Warhawk? The P-40 Warkawk is my favorite WW2 plane @Cedy117
@Ihavenorealideawhatiamdoing thanks!
Incredible!
Lol thanks! @503rdAirborneSoldier
Lol yeah I added the 117 because I was a fan of halo @2393633
@Cedy117 I just saw you on a halo save and I was like John-117?
What? @2393633
Is the 117 a coincidence?
This seems to work fine on high settings on my phone so it should be mobile friendly @BronzeWing252
But... You built this admirably.
Mobile hostile
@Cedy117 could you make a mobile friendly P-40? Please?
Thanks I'm glad you like it I'll have some more fighters in the works as of now@Vantage
