Not the P-38!

1. This aircraft was designed and built due to experiences in the previous war.

2. It was built with extra armor around the cockpit and the engines.
3. The aircraft was used to inspire the pilots that flew it.
4. It's designer went on to build iconic warbirds , for another manufacturer.
5. Two main variants built.
6. The contracted number of aircraft to be built was cut in half of the original order.
7. It's first flight was from an airfield located in Dayton Ohio that you may have heard of.



Ok, that's the start!

Thanks!
