Grumman F4F-4 Wildcat VF-9 USS Ranger (CV 4) Ensign Hamilton McWorther, Operation Torch November, 1942 The Wildcat was the only effective fighter available to the United States Navy and Marine Corps in the Pacific from 1941 to 1943. While the Wildcat was still outperformed by the faster, more maneuverable, and longer ranged Mitsubishi A6M Zero, the F4F's ruggedness combined with effective US pilot's tactics made it more successful in combat. The first operational version, the F4F-3 had a fixed wing which limited the number a fleet aircraft carrier could operate to 18. Grumman had proposed incorporating a folding wing to the Wildcat in 1940 and the Navy had awarded a contract for the F4F-4 in 1941. The folding wings would allow the fleet carriers to operate 27 Wildcats. The Battle of the Coral Sea had proved the need for more fighters for CAP and escort, and the Navy rushed to replace the fixed wing F4F-3 with the new F4F-4 before the next inevitable carrier battle which turned out to be Midway. Navy and Marine pilots weren't thrilled with the F4F-4 as it was heavier, less maneuverable, and had added 2 more machine guns which reduced the ammunition to each and reduced the firing time. But it was what they had. They made the most of it that they could, and held the line through 1943.

Bell P-63C Kingcobra Unit: 16th GvIAP VVS Siberia/Mongolia Bell designed the P-63 with the intention of improving the high altitude performance failure of the P-39 Airacobra. Although similar looking, the P-63 was a totally new aircraft; being larger with a laminer flow wing, supercharging,etc. Despite its improvements, the P-63 never lived up to the level of the P-51, Corsair, or other late-war front line fighters. The P-63 never saw combat in USAAF squadrons. Some 76% of the 3300 planes went to the Soviet Union, where their service record is largely unknown. The Soviets were have spin recovery issues with the first production version, the P-63A, and demanded a fix. Bell responded with the P-63C, adding a fin under the rear fuselage and shifting some of the aircraft CG which solved the problems. The US Army Air Force (USAAF) order for two prototypes in June 1941 launched the P-63 Kingcobra. Further prototypes followed before deliveries of the first production version began in October 1943. Production deliveries of the P-63A began in October of 1943. The USAAF never saw fit to use the Kingcobra for operational combat missions, since by that time in the war the need for a high altitude fighter was met by the P-38 and P-51, and low-altitude close-support fighter aircraft was more than adequately filled by such aircraft as the P-47 Thunderbolt. However, the Soviet Union had a need for a high-altitude fighter (where the P-39 was deficient), and excellent ground attack capabilities using the 37-mm cannon. The US Army directed the production of the Kingcobra to the Soviet s lend-lease program. The Russians used the P-63C Kingcobra primarily in the far east after declaring war on Japan in August 1945, Its mission was for close-support and ground strafing. The Kingcobra had a relatively good low-altitude performance and had the ability to absorb a lot of battle damage and still remain flying. It proved to be a potent ground attack aircraft and tank-buster, but it never received the amount of attention in the Soviet Union as did the Ilyushin Il-2 Shturmovik.

This is an update of the legendary Boeing 707 by Libardo Guzman. As none of the various virtual cockpits and 2D panels coming with diverse updates of this beautiful model have ever satisfied me I've decided to offer a new package with new reworked panels. I've tried to design and configure the panels as close and authentic as possible to the real 707 panel. The package includes 15 selected texture sets, among them Lufthansa, AA, Pan Am, USA-1, AWACS and others. The package comes with automatic exhaust smoke and new camera views. Thanks to Libardo Guzman for the great original model. Also, credits go to Andre Ludick for the South African repaint, to Erwin Welker for the additional camera views and to Bill Melichar for his great sound. New VC and 2D panel as well as smoke configuration by Michael Pook. The model may also work in P3D, Version3).

The Tupolev Tu-154 is a three-engine medium-range narrow-body airliner designed in the mid 1960s and manufactured by Tupolev. Russian airlines for several decades, it serviced over a sixth of the world's landmass and carried half of all passengers flown by Aeroflot and its subsidiaries (137.5 million/year or 243.8 billion passenger kilometers in 1990).
