Aviation history through the eyes of the United States

During holidays managed to visit the National Musiem of the USAF about the state of the town of Dayton Ohio. www.nationalmuseum.af.mil

I'm not a journalist and a photographer from me, he was still, strictly do not judge, but maybe someone will be interested in a view from behind a hill on the history of aviation.

Some of the photos contain images of the stand with the description or name, to give some description of himself, and some leave without descriptions - do not swear.

Photos will be very much.
Let's start.

"The Sleep of Reason Produces Monsters" - it's about this device.
However, this summer.





Protection chain transmission device above.
I imagine with what a crash it worked!



Biplane



And this is his engine.
Already 60 "horses"!



More biplane. If you look closely - you can see on top of the gun.
I wonder how the pilot got out there - the exhaust system must be very hot!



Engine



Engine and Propeller.
Cut out the tree that's a problem of the propeller must be no easy task.
The design is old, but very elegant.



I do not know what it is.
Truck chassis should be separated during take-off, in the manner of "Zero" kamikaze.
Ie disposable unit. But do not drone, in those days it never dreamed of - a "hole" for the pilot is visible just behind the engine. Where he legs Maiden - I'll never know ?!



According to the military doctrine of the United States, right after WW2 era biplane begins and comes to an era of serious 12tsilindrovyh 443 horsepower turbocharged V-shaped engine.
This is a breakthrough of engineering!
Meet,



Hawker Harricane MK2



Very interesting form of cowl chassis. Take off and land only on a prepared runway.



As is clear from the inscriptions, the sight of the A6M Zero.



Whoever guesses what kind of coffin which looks a fan of hamburgers, I buy two frogs and perhaps a fir cone. :)

(The answer I know)



Uporotyh shark feels plane.
The P-40 Warhawk



Bomber.



If I am not mistaken - P-36 Hawk



The famous Cobra
P-39.
Obviously, the authors wanted to show the installation mechanics preparing the plane for flight on AlSib to transfer the USSR on lend-lease program, in a cold Alaska.



Another bomber.



Motor bomber.



3 kills fascists. Wat Wat so.



I forgot someone. In my head is spinning, and I can not remember.



It is, on the other hand.



Mustang.



This plane is somehow always makes me excited.
Lockheed P-38 Lightning

Sorry, I am not entirely turned out - there was nowhere to move, so he got into the whole frame.



Music, carved in metal.



The P-47 Thunderbolt

What should be the man in the head, so to paint a fighter pink elephant ?!



The moped is not mine, I just posted announced. :)

Protivougonki killed.



On such a plane IV Stalin arrived at the Yalta Conference.
Usually, he traveled by train.

Douglas DC-2



The B-17, if I'm not mistaken.



Ju-88



Pearl collection!

I thought they never left!

Me-262



It is, on the other hand.



Banknotes of the WWII.
He collected some American pilot.

Right in the center (under the purple denyuzhku) our "treshka ''27. (Believe in the word, is not visible in the photo)



Savages inspect the B-25 Mitchell, lied, clarified later

Obviously, the authors attempted to install hint at Australians, who is hot and Archpriest Moresby.



Ki-84
