In early 1942, the American Volunteer Group's success over China did wonders for U.S. morale
following Pearl Harbor. The Flying Tigers and their shark-mouthed P-40 warhawks destroyed nearly
300 enemy aircraft while losing only 21 of their own. This sport-scale P-40 ARF does the WWII
legend proud – with a high-quality design and the versatility to please every low-wing pilot.
