The mystery aircraft isn't a P-36 Hawk. The P-36 is a Curtis designed aircraft, whilst the NF-1 was designed by Severesky before it became Republic.

This fighter was Republic's very first design and build contract for lend-lease only.

The P-47 was a scaled up version of this aircraft.

So what is it??

P-43 Lancer!

I'd love to have one of them in my back yard!! Or a harier jump jet. Then have google earth as my screen saver haha.

Anyone looking for my house on google earth and ask which is mine...

Yeah erm..its the one with the harrier jump jet in the back yard haha.



On a serious note though, they do look very effective from the air.
