This HUGE Mahogany wood desktop airplane model is BIGGER and more detailed than the regular model airplane available in the market today, for a lot less but greater in quality! 

FROM MASTERCRAFT: one huge BIG WINGS series P-40E Warhawk! This BIG wood desktop model airplane is completely handcarved from mahogany wood and hand-painted! Measuring more than 18 inches long with a 20-inch wingspan, this BIG P-40E is in every respect larger than a regular-sized P-40E wood desktop model airplane.  The P-40E was the variant that bore the brunt of air to air combat by the type in the key period of early to mid 1942, for example with the first US squadrons to replace the AVG in China (the AVG was already transitioning to this type from the P-40B/C), the type used by the Australians at Milne Bay, by the New Zealand squadrons during most of their air to air combat, and by the RAF / Commonwealth in North Africa as the Kittyhawk IA. 

Only from Mastercraft, the maker of desktop models for America for over 30 years. Words and pictures are not enought to describe this desktop model, you have to see and own one for yourself to know how  BIG and Detailed this desktop model airplane is! 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 

The Curtiss P-40 was an American single-engine, single-seat, all-metal fighter and ground attack aircraft that first flew in 1938. It was used in great numbers in World War II. The P-40 design was a modification of the previous P-36; this reduced development time and enabled a rapid entry into production and operational service. When production of the P-40 ceased in November 1944, 13,738 had been built. They were used by the air forces of 28 nations and remained in front line service until the end of the war. 

Warhawk was the name the United States Army Air Corps adopted for all models, making it the official name in the United States for all P-40s. British Commonwealth air forces gave the name Tomahawk to models equivalent to the P-40B and P-40C, and the name Kittyhawk to models equivalent to the P-40D and all later variants. 

The P-40's lack of a two-stage supercharger made it inferior to Luftwaffe fighters in high-altitude combat and it was rarely used in operations in Northwest Europe. Between 1941 and 1944, however, the P-40 played a critical role with Allied air forces in five major theaters around the world: China, the Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, the Southwest Pacific and Eastern Europe. The P-40's high altitude performances was not as critical in those theaters where it played an important role as a front line fighter, and later as a fighter-bomber.
