| Tom Brown , OH | Great demand for a modern, high-speed photo reconnaissance aircraft resulted in nearly a third of the P-38E fighter production authorized in contract AC-15646 to be completed to F-4-1-LO specs (41-2098/2099, 41-2121/2156, 41-2158/2171, 41-2220). These 99 planes were completed between March and Aug. 1942. The 100th plane from this block -- 41-2157 -- was completed in July as the only F-5A-2-LO. 03/14/2011 @ 12:39 [ref: 36852] |
| WJ Andres , AZ | A GREAT site for information on the F-4 version of the P-38 is www.34thprs.org. This unit, the 34th photo recon squadron, flew out of England and France during the war, and Pilot Allan Keith flew the famous pre-D-day recon missions over the beaches of Normandy, providing Ike with the most up to date photos of German positions. Without the weight of canons and armament, the f-4 was the fastest plane in the European Theatre, until the Germans unveiled the ME262 jet. My dad was a replacement pilot in this unit. Please visit the site, it's great.
And the Portuguese quote says something like "The most beutiful airplane that ever existed." I concur. 03/30/2009 @ 12:06 [ref: 24044] |
