Boeing P-26 Peashooter Model
Product description:
The Fighter of the 30’s
The P-26 was a new design for Boeing and the first all metal single-wing fighter produced in the U.S. for the Army Air Corps. Popularly known by its pilots as the “Peashooter”, it had wings braced with wire rather than struts so it was lighter and produced less drag than previous fighters. The P-26 could fly faster and outclimb biplanes and was acclaimed for its speed and maneuverability. The Army ordered 136 Peashooters and they formed the core of pursuit squadrons throughout the U.S. in the 1930’s. The P-26 was also the last open-cockpit fighter built for the Air Corps, the last with fixed landing gear, and the last with externally braced wings. This authentic reproduction is hand-carved of mahogany in exacting detail including the pilot’s helmet and goggles. The model is 11.5” long with a 14” wingspan and includes the display stand shown.
