Few aircraft of World War Two fought in as many places, in as many colours, and under as many flags as the Curtiss P-40. 

Often overshadowed by later, more glamorous fighters, the Warhawk was nevertheless one of the most important combat aircraft of the early war years – rugged, heavily armed, and available in large numbers when the Allies desperately needed it.

From the shark-mouthed fighters of the American Volunteer Group over China, to RAF Tomahawks battling the Luftwaffe in North Africa, to Soviet and Commonwealth squadrons fighting on multiple fronts, the P-40 became a truly global warrior.

This bookazine tells the full story of the Warhawk – its development, its strengths and weaknesses, the men who flew it, and the brutal air campaigns in which it played a decisive role.
