Summary[edit]
The factual accuracy of this description or the file name is disputed.
Reason: The SNJ-6 (and equivalent USAAF AT-6F) can be readily identified from previous versions by the fixed, clear rear portion of the canopy. This aircraft has the framed, pivotting rear canopy used with a rear gun that was used on earlier SNJ-3, 4, and 5, but not the SNJ-6.
In fact, the rearmost canopy frame with a fixed, one piece assembly is a key recognition feature. The aft canopy section is a key AT-6F/SNJ-6 recognition feature.- Hagedorn, Dan (1997) North American NA-16/AT-6/SNJ (WarbirdTech Volume 11), North Branch, MN: Speciality Press ISBN: 0-933424-76-0. This recognition feature is missing from this photo. |
