The Curtis P-36 Hawk #7246304
Description
First known as the Curtiss Model 75, the Hawk was the predecessor to the Curtis P-40. By the beginning of WWII the P-36 was already considered obsolete. Circumstances compelled limited use of P-36s in the opening stages of hostilities with Japan, but they were very soon relegated for use as a second-line aircraft in the training role.
