A brief history of the model:
The Bell P-39 Airacobra was one of the most innovative American fighters of WWII, famous for its unique mid-engine layout and tricycle landing gear. Designed around the powerful 37mm cannon firing through the propeller hub, the P-39 had excellent low-altitude performance, making it especially effective in ground-attack and close-support roles. While it saw limited success with the U.S., it gained a fearsome reputation in the hands of Soviet pilots on the Eastern Front, where its durability and firepower made it a formidable dogfighter.
