SincoTC 10th Apr 2012 09:54

Morning sycamore :)

Not Russian; but Wyvern will do nicely, It is the turboprop AS Python powered Westland Lysander T.3

Curtiss XP-37 ?

Noyade 10th Apr 2012 21:56

G'day Brian. It is a Curtiss, but not the XP-37.

First flight was February 15, 1941...

One of the early Curtiss XP-40 test aircraft...OH IF correct...

Noyade 10th Apr 2012 22:32

It was a potential successor to the P-40 and built based on actual pilot experience in Europe.
It received a separate P designation.
