catchforusthefoxes Posted October 18, 2020 Posted October 18, 2020 just wondering if we will get this for the D-40?
HotTom Posted October 18, 2020 Posted October 18, 2020 (edited) just wondering if we will get this for the D-40? The radar was not available until the P-47N series in the Spring of 1945. And then only in the Pacific. But, technically, we have the wrong gunsight on our Jugs. On the P-47, the K-14 also first appeared on the N series, again only in the Pacific. http://www.historyofwar.org/articles/weapons_P-47N.html Edited October 18, 2020 by HotTom Exceptional engineering...and a large hammer to make it fit!
