Every U.S Fighter Aircraft Used in WWII

Описание: #P51Mustang #F6FHellcat #USAAF

From pre-war fighters in rooted in 1930s design to aircraft that defined air superiority by 1945, this documentary traces how American fighter aviation evolved under the pressure of global war. The journey moves from limited-range, lightly armed aircraft to long-range escorts, hardened carrier fighters, and the first operational jets.

It begins with designs struggling to keep pace with modern combat and ends with machines capable of dominating skies across continents and oceans.

This video presents a complete inventory of 22 U.S. fighter aircraft operated by the U.S. Army Air Forces, U.S. Navy, and U.S. Marine Corps between 1935 and 1945, examined in strict historical order. Every aircraft included reached operational service and played a defined role in the air war.

The structure follows a clear progression: pre-war foundations, early-war stopgaps, carrier-based naval fighters, mid-war escort and high-altitude designs, late-war air superiority aircraft, and limited-use experimental transitions.

Iconic fighters such as the P-51 Mustang, P-47 Thunderbolt, F6F Hellcat, and F4U Corsair are covered alongside lesser-known interim types, export variants, and XP-series experiments that shaped doctrine and design behind the scenes.
