Mohawks of the British Commonwealth

4th June 2018 Gaëtan MarieCurtiss P-36 Hawk

The Royal Air Force and South African Air Force were some of the operators of the Curtiss Hawk 75, the export version of the P-36 Hawk. In RAF or SAAF service, these aircraft were called Mohawk. Here are a few examples, created for Phil Listemann’s book Squadrons! No. 17 – The Curtiss Mohawk.   This Mohawk…Continue reading Mohawks of the British Commonwealth

The world’s only two airworthy P-36 Hawk / Hawk 75

18th January 201814th January 2018 Gaëtan MarieCurtiss P-36 Hawk

Out of more than 1,100 P-36 Hawk or Hawk 75 produced by Curtiss, only two are airworthy today (with a third being currently restored to airworthiness).* The first one is a Hawk 75A-1 which was among the first Hawks delivered to the French air force in 1939. It is now registered G-CCVH and operated by The…Continue reading The world’s only two airworthy P-36 Hawk / Hawk 75

Curtiss Hawk 75/P-36 on final

22nd August 201616th August 2016 Gaëtan MarieCurtiss P-36 Hawk

The Curtiss Hawk 75, which saw some success during the Battle of France, was one of the first aircraft types I tackled. However, and despite some rework, these old illustrations were not very good so I recently took the P-40B/C template and converted it into a P-36/Hawk 75. Here is the result: The P-40 prototype…Continue reading Curtiss Hawk 75/P-36 on final

Curtiss P-36 Hawk

4th September 20069th June 2016 Gaëtan MarieCurtiss P-36 Hawk

The Curtiss P-36 Hawk was a rather successful aircraft for its time but was on the verge of obsolescence when World War II began. It was widely exported, including to France where it proved inferior to its opponent, the Messerschmitt Bf 109, in most respects except for maneuverability. It was also extensively used by Finland…Continue reading Curtiss P-36 Hawk
