They're good. Definitely worth it.

Just an Allison, I believe. Bizarre, but then again I guess North American would've had the monopoly on Packards. Wikipedia Says: XP-40Q with a 4-bladed prop, cut-down rear fuselage and bubble canopy, supercharger, squared-off wingtips and tail surfaces, and improved engine with two-speed supercharger was tested, but its performance was not enough of an improvement to merit production when compared to the contemporary late model P-47Ds and P-51Ds pouring off production lines. The XP-40Q was, however, the fastest of the P-40 series with a top speed of 422 mph as a result of the...

Just beat me to it, Ian /winkyy.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= ;) border= 0 alt= winkyy.gif /> very nice. She's a classy lady even now... from an age when it was not impolite to smoke a little, and thrust reversers were on the horizon, (but braking parachutes were the order of the day).

A growing belief that manned air to air combat was to be quickly surpassed by missile technology (this was mainly down to a few high ranking officials including the Minister of Defence) Thoughts (that may have been partially influenced by the above reason) that it would be cheaper to buy an "off the shelf" item - The F-111 (that never happened due to big issues with the development of the F-111 and...
