Auto Credit Based on Mustang51's 1945-1950 Naval Aviation Challenge (Closed)
The Martin AM Mauler (originally XBTM) was a single-seat shipboard attack aircraft built for the United States Navy. Designed during World War II, the Mauler encountered development delays and did not enter service until 1948 in small numbers. The aircraft proved troublesome and remained in frontline service only until 1950, when the Navy switched to the smaller and simpler Douglas AD Skyraider. (1) landing hook, (2) dive brakes, (3) folding wings, (4) lights, (5) gyro. Trim = trim, VTOL for flaps. The AM Mauler carries 15 hardpoints -in this case, 3 fish and 12 rockets. Happy hunting...

@SimplyPlain so I want to give you the upvote prize but the problem is that I have already upvoted most of your builds before and now there are none left that I can. If you like you can let me know whenever you post a new build and I will upvote it or over the course of the next couple days I can spotlight all of your builds. What would you prefer?
Thank you, thank you! I'll have to put a special "kill marking" on the Mauler, just for the occasion...
