Curtiss P40B Tomahawk of the 44th Pursuit Squadron, based at Bellows Field, Hawaii, on the 7th of Dec 1941  

It is intended For use with Charles Gunst's ECA (Enemy Coast Ahead) Panel. It uses the P-51B slot, 

To use, unzip the *.tpc files, the *.3dz files and the vcg_p51b file, and place in your EAW directory.

Captain Curt developed a completely new 3DZ model version of a wireframe of the P40 from Microprose's "1942: Pacific Air War" which brings it up to EAW standards.  

This has been something of a community project, in the best spirit of the great EAW community. It is completely non-mirrored, courtesy of Rob Der Fuchs work. He contributed his solution to this, and Captain Curt was able to incorporate most of what he did. The entire fuselage and the insignia areas of the wings are separate. Capitan Manducas work for the landing gear doors and pilot tube was also used and incorporated into the new model.

Claudio Wilches has made the cockpit for this plane, with completely new interior and wing views. Clauadio also built the non mirrored view for the medium distance model and fixed a 3DZ problem with the cockpit height. Woolfman was responsible for first adding an EAW prop and transparency to the PAW model. 

This P40B has been modified from Capt. Kurt's P40E 3D model and skin, it has a retro fitted Hurricane cockpit, but using repainted wing views by Claudio Wilches.


Over and out.
