Tomahawk IIB

model, unwrap and skin by: DemonDelta

Historical commentary by : Uberduber

The Tomahawk was the British name of the American Curtiss P-40 aircraft. P40 -B and -C variants were known as Tomahawks, and later versions were called Kittyhawks and Warhawks by US forces.
The plane was well armored, had an impressive dive speed and a good roll rate. The P-40 family of models saw service in nearly every theatre of WW2, from the deserts of North Africa, to the jungles of New Guinea and the Dutch East Indies, to the Arctic climates of the Soviet Union and Alaska.
Our modeled version is a Tomahawk IIB (P40-C)

It mounted a 1,040 hp Allison V12 liquid cooled engine. This engine allowed a maximum speed of 345 mph (555 km/h), although under desert conditions with a sand filter over the air inlet it was considerably less.
Range with internal fuel was 730 miles (1175 km). It had four 0.303-inch Browning machine guns in the wings in addition to the two nose-mounted 0.50-in guns.


The Royal Air Force's No. 112 Squadron was the first to fly Tomahawks in North Africa
In mid-1941, the squadron was the first P-40 unit to use the famous "shark mouth" painted onto the engine cowling, later made famous by the Flying Tigers fighter group who were inspired by the 112 squadron's efforts.

Lee Enfield No.#1 Mk3 Smle


Model by DemonDelta and Abyx, unwrapped by Abyx, Skin by: DemonDelta

History and Specifications: By Uberduber

The No 1 MkIII SMLE

The Lee-Enfield was, in various marks and models, the British Army's standard bolt-action, magazine-fed rifle for over 60 years from 1895 until 1956. It was witness to the famous battles of the Somme, Gallipoli, Tobruk, El Alamein, and Kokoda to name a few. It distinguished itself through excellent durability, rate of fire, and stopping power. The fast, smooth operating bolt-action and large magazine capacity enabled a trained rifleman to fire between 20 to 30 aimed rounds a minute, making the Lee-Enfield the fastest military bolt-action rifle of the day.
