书籍简介

贝尔P-39采用中置发动机布局，配备坚固的三轮起落架和机鼻37毫米机炮，堪称设计周全且富有创新性的战机。然而该机型在性能表现上不及盟军飞行员可用的其他主力战机（如喷火式、地狱猫式、野马式），尤其在高空作战能力方面存在明显短板。尽管遭英美作战中队普遍弃用，“空中眼镜蛇”在苏联却广受青睐——红军航空兵成功部署大批该型战机对抗德国空军。本册《战争传奇》系列新作收录了空中眼镜蛇所有型号的详尽影像资料，涵盖原型机、教练机、C至Q系列量产型及P-400改进型。

With a midengined configuration, sturdy tricycle landing gear, and nose-mounted 37 mm cannon, the Bell P-39 was a thoughtful and innovative design. However, the plane lacked the all-out performance of some other key fighters available to Allied fliers (e.g., Spitfire, Hellcat, Mustang), particularly at altitude. Largely rejected by British and American combat squadrons, the Airacobra was much better received in the Soviet Union, where the Red Air Force successfully deployed large quantities of the type against the Luftwaffe. This new entry in the Legends of Warfare series features detailed photographic coverage of all variants of the Airacobra, including prototypes, trainer versions, production models C through Q, and the P-400.
