P-39 US gunsight

But I think that the gunsight on the game P39 is a variant of the N3, probably N3B, rather than an N9. I will look closer tonight. I'm not sure if airacobras flown by the VVS had N3 sights or if a Russian sight was installed.

Hi!

I have a PDF book, called "AeroHobby, Early P-39 Airacobras in the Soviet Air Force"
appears well written in my folder in Windows, because the book is in Cyrillic :? :?



But the book is highly illustrated with photos and diagrams of the aircraft in general and the cockpit in particular .


The case that always gunsight appears named "ST-1A" for P-400/D1/D2 models, and in the P-400 model, in the right of ST-1A, appears an auxiliar gunsight , type "Ring and Bead," similar to those of the first P-51/47 types.

But IHMO, the russians P-39 gunsight, is not a N3 model.

Perhaps some Russian friend, like Mangas :wink: , keep this book and we can report, much better than me, with my poor English :oops:
