Curtiss P-40 Tomahawk MSFS 2020

A big thank you to Fsadni who once again brings us a beautiful plane from the Second World War on a platter. The mod is under development and will be updated regularly. The colors of the aircraft are very well reproduced compared to the real P-40.

The P-40 was America's finest fighter and produced in large numbers at the start of World War II. P-40s engaged Japanese aircraft at Pearl Harbor and the Philippines in December 1941. They also served with the famous Flying Tigers in China in 1942 and in North Africa in 1943 with the 99th Fighter Squadron, the first African-American fighter unit. American.

The Warhawk, a strong and reliable aircraft, was used in many combat areas - the Aleutian Islands, Italy, the Middle East, the Far East, the South West Pacific and some were sent to Russia. Although often slower and less maneuverable than its opponents, the P-40 earned a reputation for extreme toughness in combat. It served throughout the war, but was eclipsed by more capable aircraft. More than 14,000 P-40s were built and served with the air forces of 28 nations.
