THE
USAAF
The United States
Army Air Force (USAAF) was the aviation arm of the United States Army during
WWII. Up until 1941 it was originally known as the Army Air Corps.
With the likelihood
of participation in WWII, the aviation branch was forced into a radical reorganisation,
which resulted in total autonomy in March 1942.
As a result of
its growth during WWII, the USAAF became the world's largest and most powerful
air force. It grew from the 1939 Air Corps of 20,000 men and 2,320 planes
to the autonomous USAAF of 1944, with personnel of almost 2.4 million and
around 80,000 aircraft.
B24
LIBERATOR!
As
you can see, the B24 Liberator is our favourite plane/bomber, hence B24FLAK.
We just love the shape and look of it, it's quite ugly and lacking of the
nice lines of say the Spitfire, but call us weird, we LOVE IT!
THE
PLANES WE LIKE, SO FAR...
Others that are
currently in the works are the B25, the Kitty Hawk, Thunderbolt, Mustang...
we could really go on!
IF
THE USAAF'S NOT FOR YOU...
