...
I read a book recently about a fighter group who flew with one under wing
tank, and a bomb under the other, with P51's, the drag must have been
hellish!
The U.S. used the P47, and the P38's to great advantake for ground attack,
the RAF used the typhoon, the tempest, the beaufort, these are the most
prominent ones i can remember.


The Beaufort was a twin engined bomber and you missed out the P-40
which was used heavily by the RAF , RAAF ad USAAF and the
Hurricane used extensively by the RAF and Soviets
