Talk:Curtiss YP-60
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Curtiss XP-60 production
Actually, while the Curtiss XP-60 showed advantages over the P-40 Warhawk to justify a production order for 1,950 P-60As, after the US entered World War 2 following the attack on Pearl Harbor, Curtiss had second thoughts about disrupting P-40 production for production of a new type at the crucial point. Thus, because Curtiss itself was too occupied with P-40 production at Buffalo, New York, the P-60 production order was canceled, but three on the contract were relegated to be experimental aircraft. 72.194.116.63 18:00, 25 February 2007 (UTC) Vahe Demirjian 10.00 25 February 2007
