Developed from the P-36 "Hawk",
the P-40 Warhawk was the best U.S. fighter available at the
outbreak of WWII. Probably the most famous unit to fly the P-40 was
the American Volunteer Group (AVG) "Flying Tigers" that flew out
of Chinese bases against the Japanese.
Different versions of the P-40 were also known as the Tomahawk
and Kittyhawk. More than 14,000 were produced.
