The P-40 Warhawk was an American fighter aircraft manufactured by the Curtiss-Wright Corporation. It was used during World War II and was known for its distinctive shark-head nose design. It was powered by a single Allison V-1710-81 liquid-cooled V12 engine, giving it a top speed of around 360 mph. It was armed with six .50-inch caliber machine guns and was used in a variety of roles, including intercept, bomber escort, ground target attack, and reconnaissance. Famous pilots such as Claire Chennault and Richard Bong piloted it. The P-40 Warhawk remained in service until the late 1940s and some were even used in combat operations into the 1950s.
