About the Curtiss P-40B Warhawk

The Curtiss P-40B Warhawk was an early variant of the legendary P-40 series, serving as a frontline fighter during the critical early years of World War II. The B-model featured improved armor protection and self-sealing fuel tanks compared to earlier variants, making it more survivable in combat. Most famously, the P-40B equipped the American Volunteer Group (Flying Tigers) in China, where pilots achieved remarkable success against Japanese aircraft despite being outnumbered. With its distinctive shark-mouth nose art and rugged construction, the P-40B became an iconic symbol of American determination during the early war years and remains a favorite subject for WWII aviation enthusiasts and Flying Tigers historians.

What's Included

Eduard's CX series masks are precision-cut from thin, flexible vinyl that conforms perfectly to complex canopy curves and wheel hubs. The set typically includes canopy frame masks for both interior and exterior surfaces, wheel hub masks, and any additional glazed areas. The self-adhesive backing ensures secure placement without residue, while the material's flexibility allows it to follow compound curves without lifting or leaking paint.
