outstanding hawks well done sir

Well, it was time for the most famous versions of the P-40.
First of all, I had to make more modifications to the original model. Bruno's P-40K is one of his oldest models and is therefore logically very simplified. So I had to modify some parts, especially the nose of the machine, which now has the typical indentation of the radiator tunnel a bit to the rear. But I am quite satisfied with the result. So I gradually prepared most of the basic versions of the machine, namely E, F, K, M and N, and started to do the camouflage and markings.

First one is version P-40E - 4 models at all.

- Curtiss P-40E-1 Kittyhawk IA (RAAF, 75. Sq., Fl.Off. Geoff Atherton, Milne Bay AB, August 1942)
- Curtiss P-40E-1 Warhawk (USAAF, 8. FS, 49. FG, Lt. Pierre S. Alford, Port Moresby AB, October 1942)
- Curtiss P-40E-1 Warhawk (USAAF, 11. FS, 343. FG, Adak Island, Aleutians, 1942)
- Curtiss P-40E-1 Warhawk (USAAF, 16. FS, 23. FG, Lt. Dallas A. Clinger, China, January 1943)

Next up is the relatively uncommon P-40F version. Here 3 models will be available:
- Curtiss P-40F-5 Warhawk (USAAF, 44th FS, 18th FG, 13th AF, Maj. R.B. Westbrook, Guadalcanal, 1943)
- Curtiss P-40F-5 Warhawk (USAAF, 86th FS, 79th FG, Tunisia, summer 1943)
- Curtiss P-40F-15 Warhawk (USAAF, 317th FS, 325th FG, Cpt. Ralph 'Zack' Taylor Jr., actions over Sicily & Sardinia, Mateur AB, Tunisia, August 1943)

Next up is the P-40K version and again there are 3 models:

- Curtiss P-40K-1 Warhawk (USAAF, 64. FS, 57. FG, 1.Lt. Robert J. Overcash, Operation Flax, Hani Main AB, Tunisia, 18.4.1943)
- Curtiss P-40K-5 Warhawk (USAAF, 25. FS, 51. FG, Assam Valley, India, 1944)

PayPal is gonna get broken with all the P-40s Gerry is releasing...and I'm gonna be broke. But I've always believed, "It ain't a collection if you don't have them all!"

[Gerry1966]

Next up is of course the M version. 4 models and not one marking is American. I guess it doesn't matter though.

- Curtiss P-40M-5 Kittyhawk III (RAAF, 76. Sq., Fl.Sgt. Howard O'Meara, Momote Strip, Los Negros Island, 1944)
- Curtiss P-40M-5 Kittyhawk III (RAF, 112. Sq, Sq.Ldr. P. Illingworth, Sicily, July 1943)
- Curtiss P-40M-5 Kittyhawk III (RNZAF, 14. Sq., F.O. Geoffrey Fisken, DFC, Kukum Field, Guadalcanal, June 1943)
- Curtiss P-40M-5 Kittyhawk III (SAAF, 5. Sq, 233. Fighter Wing, Mileni AB, Foggia, Italy, December 1943)

And there's the last line of P-40s, the N version of course.

Hello everyone, unfortunately I got late (yesterday) thanks to Nico Walls new materials that specify the appearance of the Dutch Curtiss Hawk 75 aircraft.
I fixed the model immediately, but I can't replace it myself in the Ecardmodels offer. Of course I immediately asked for a replacement, but I am aware that it will take some time.
Therefore, I would like to ask you to wait to buy this model until the files are replaced. I know that several people have already purchased the Hawk Part 2 set and to those I am offering a free exchange for an already repaired model.
Thank you for your understanding

I realised I hadn't posted any aircraft from the Great War for a long time, from the savage dogfights over the hell of trench warfare in Flanders, at Ypres, over Verdun ....
I had to remedy that and get some sets of old biplanes ready.
