Originally designed to replace the Douglas DC-3/C-47 Skytrain, the prototype utility transport aircraft was designated by Max Holste and designated the Max Holste MH.250 Super Broussard it first flew on 20 May 1959. The initial design had the aircraft rather square in shape, and fitted Pratt & Whitney Wasp radial engines to the aircraft. The second prototype, known as the MH.260, was equipped with Turbomeca Bastan turboprop engines and eventually took its flight just over a year later on 29 July 1960. |

The North American P-64 is often referred to by Warbird lovers as an “export fighter version of the AT-6 Texan”, North American’s ubiquitous WWII trainer. In actuality, the P-64 is similar to, but not the same as the AT-6. The most significant differences include a shorter wing, the aircraft length, and a more powerful engine. The parts for these aircraft, though similar, are not interchangeable. |

Originally formed in 1902 for the manufacture of engine components (and for which it developed a good reputation), it was reformed in 1909 as the Société Générale d'Aéro-locomotion, and its products (including ignition components) were marketed to the aviation industry. During this time, their first aircraft were built, starting with a small single-seat monoplane, which was destroyed in a flood. A second design flew before the end of 1909 and had the essential form of the modern aircraft, including a non-lifting tail (where the lifting force pushed it down, as opposed to up as on the Bleriots |

The Nakajima B5N1 carrier based Torpedo Bomber (Kate) was designed in 1935 by a Nakajima design team under the supervision of Katsuji Nakamura and went into production as the Navy Type 97 Model 1 attack bomber in 1937. It was soon discovered that it was extremely venerable to any modern fighter aircraft so by 1939 the B5N2 was designed and put into production. By the outbreak of the war even the B5N2 was considered obsolete, yet still an effective torpedo attack aircraft |

The Northrop YF-17 (unofficially nicknamed "Cobra") was a prototype lightweight fighter aircraft designed for the United States Air Force's Lightweight Fighter (LWF) technology evaluation program. The LWF was created because many in the fighter community believed that aircraft like the F-15 Eagle were too large and expensive for many combat roles. The YF-17 was the culmination of a long line of Northrop designs, beginning with the N-102 Fang in 1956, continuing through the F-5 family. |

The Nakajima B5N (Japanese:
中島 B5N,
Allied reporting name: "Kate") was the standard torpedo
bomber of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) for much of
World War II.While the B5N was substantially faster and
more capable than its Allied counterparts, the TBD
Devastator and Fairey Swordfish, it was close to
obsolescence by 1941. Nevertheless, the B5N operated
throughout the whole war,

The Northrop F-5A/B Freedom Fighter and F-5E/F Tiger II are part of a family of widely used light supersonic fighter aircraft, designed and built by Northrop in the United States, beginning in 1960s. Hundreds remain in service in air forces around the world in the early 21st Century, and the type has also been the basis for a number of other aircraft. |

The Nakajima B5N (Japanese: 中島 B5N, Allied reporting name: "Kate") was the standard torpedo bomber of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) for much of World War II.. In the early part of the Pacific War, flown by well-trained IJN aircrews and with its attacks coordinated with other types of aircraft, the B5N achieved particular successes at the battles of Pearl Harbor, Coral Sea, Midway, and Santa Cruz Islands.Although primarily used as a carrier-based aircraft, it was also used as a land-based bomber upon occasion. |

The Northrop YB-49 was a prototype jet-powered Flying Wing heavy bomber aircraft developed by Northrop for the United States Air Force shortly after World War II. It was the jet development of the piston-engined Northrop XB-35 and YB-35 Flying Wing, and the two YB-49s actually built were both converted YB-35 test aircraft. The jet-powered Flying Wing never entered production, however, being passed over in favor of the more conventional but obsolete Convair B-36 |

The Northrop XB-35 and YB-35 were
experimental heavy bomber aircraft developed for the United States Army Air
Forces during and shortly after World War II by the Northrop Corporation. It
used the radical and potentially very efficient flying wing design, in which
the tail section and fuselage are eliminated and all payload is carried in a
thick wing. Only prototype and pre-production aircraft were built, although
interest remained strong enough to warrant further development of the
aircraft as a jet bomber, under the designation YB-49. |

jet-powered aircraft. It was developed late in World War II and the first
prototype had only flown once before the end of the conflict. It also called
as Kōkoku Nigō Heiki (皇国二号兵器, "Imperial Weapon No.2") |

The Nakajima Ki-27 (九七式戦闘機 , Kyūnana-shiki sentōki, or Type 97 Fighter) was the main fighter aircraft used by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force up until 1940. Its Allied code name was "Nate", although it was called "Abdul" in the CBI theater by many post war sources; Allied Intelligence had reserved the name for the nonexistent Mitsubishi Navy Type 97 fighter, expected to be the successor to the Type 96 carrier-borne A5M with retractable landing gear and an enclosed cockpit. |

The Nakajima Ki-43 Hayabusa (隼, "Peregrine Falcon") was a single-engine land-based tactical fighter used by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force in World War II. The army designation was "Type 1 Fighter" (一式戦闘機); the Allied codename was "Oscar". Like the Japanese Navy's A6M, the radial-engined Ki-43 was light, maneuverable and easy to fly. The Ki-43 was legendary for its combat performance in East Asia in the early years of the war. Its lightweight construction, lack of armour on initial versions and limited firepower, however, proved to be deficient in comparison to later, more powerful Allied fighters. All versions had rubber coating and self sealing fuel tanks. Armour plating for the pilot was introduced on the KI43II. Nevertheless, the Ki-43 shot down more Allied aircraft than any other Japanese fighter. Total production amounted to 5,919 aircraft. |

The Northrop Gamma 2F was an attack
bomber derivative of the Northrop Gamma transport aircraft, developed in
parallel with the Northrop Gamma 2C, (of which one was built, designated
the YA-13 and XA-16. The Gamma 2F had a revised tail, cockpit canopy and
wing flaps compared with the Gamma 2C, and was fitted with a new
semi-retractable undercarriage. It was delivered to the United States
Army Air Corps for tests on 6 October 1934, and after modification,
including fitting with a conventional fixed undercarriage, was accepted
by the Air Corps. 110 aircraft were ordered as the A-17 in 1935 |

The Nakajima Ki-44 Shōki (鍾馗,Zhong Kui)
was a single-engine fighter aircraft used by the Imperial
Japanese Army Air Force in World War II. The type first flew in
August 1940 and entered service in 1942. The Allied codename was
"Tojo"; the Japanese Army designation was "Type 2 Single-Seat
Fighter" (二式単座戦闘機).In contrast to its predecessor, the nimble
Ki-43, the Ki-44 was designed for speed and climbing ability and
was used to intercept high-flying B-29 Superfortress bombers.
With its poor visibility on the ground, weak armament, and high
landing speed, it was generally disliked by pilots

When Jack Northrop set up the Northrop Corporation as a joint venture with the Douglas Aircraft Company in 1932, he set out to design two closely related single engined aircraft as the new company's first products, a mailplane/record breaking aircraft, which was designated the Gamma and a passenger transport, the Delta. The Delta was a low winged monoplane, with a fixed tailwheel undercarriage. It was of all-metal stressed skin construction, with streamlining spats covering the main landing gear. While the Delta's wings were common with those of the Gamma, it had a new, wider fuselage, which seated the pilot in an enclosed cockpit immediately behind the engine, and had accommodation for eight passengers in a cabin behind the pilot. The first Delta was flown in May 1933, and received an airworthiness certificate in August that year. | 32 | ||

The Nakajima Ki-84 Hayate (疾風, hayate) ("Gale") was a single-seat fighter used by the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force in World War II. The Allied codename was "Frank"; the Japanese Army designation was Army Type 4 Fighter (四式戦闘機, yon-shiki-sen-tou-ki). Featuring excellent performance, maneuverability and powerful armament, the Ki-84 was considered to be the best Japanese fighter to see large scale operations during WWII. Though hampered by poor production quality in later models, a high-maintenance engine, and lack of experienced pilots above all else, Hayates proved to be difficult opponents. 3514 aircraft were eventually built. |

Drawing on his experience with the Lockheed Vega, John K. Northrop designed an advanced mail/passenger transport aircraft. In addition to all-metal construction, the new Alpha benefitted from two revolutionary aerodynamic advancements: wing fillets researched at the Guggenheim Aeronautical Laboratory at the California Institute of Technology, and a multicellular stressed-skin wing of Northrop's own design which was later successfully used on Douglas DC-2 and Douglas DC-3. In addition, the Alpha was the first commercial aircraft to use rubber deicer boots on wing and empennage leading edges which, in conjunction with state-of-the-art radio navigation equipment, gave it day or night, all-weather capability. The aircraft first flew in 1930, with a total of 17 built. The Alpha was further developed into a dedicated fast transport Northrop Gamma. | 34 | ||
