Hasegawa's 1/48 Airacobra
This is the original-release kit from late 2006, a P-400. The kit is solely a P-400 in terms of the visible items (exhaust stacks and nose gun) so the alternatives are a P-39D, a P-39F or a P-39N, which all had similar exhausts. My [...]

The P-39 came early to the New Guinea campaign, with the first aircraft arriving at Port Moresby's Five Mile [...]
