Fotogalerii Fairchild PT-19A Cornell, The Fairchild PT-19 (company designation Fairchild M62) is an American Fairchild Aircraft monoplane primary trainer aircraft that served with the United States Army Air Forces, RAF and RCAF during World War II. It was a contemporary of the Kaydet biplane trainer and was used by the USAAF during Primary Flying Training as the introductory pre-solo phase trainer for introducing new pilots to flying before passing them on to the more agile Kaydet. As with other USAAF trainers of the period, the PT-19 had multiple designations based on the powerplant installed.

Fotogalerii Polikarpov Po-2, The Polikarpov Po-2 (also U-2) served as a general-purpose Soviet biplane, nicknamed Kukuruznik (Russian: Кукурузник, from Russian “kukuruza” (кукуруза) for maize; thus, “maize duster” or “crop duster”), NATO reporting name “Mule”. The reliable, uncomplicated concept of the Po-2’s design made it an ideal training aircraft, as well as doubling as a low-cost ground attack, aerial reconnaissance, psychological warfare and liaison aircraft during war, proved to be one of the most versatile light combat types to be built in the Soviet Union. As of 1978 it remained in production for a longer period of time than any other Soviet-era aircraft. It is one of the most produced aircraft, and may be the most produced biplane with production possibly as high as 30,000 Po-2s built between 1928 and 1959.However, production figures for Polikarpov U-2 and Po-2 bombers and trainers combined are between 20,000 and 30,000. with production ending as early as 1952.

2007 Fouga CM.170 Magister is a 1950s French two-seat jet trainer. The related CM.175 Zéphyr was a carrier-capable version for the French Navy. In 1948, development commenced at Fouga on a new primary trainer aircraft design that harnessed newly developed jet propulsion technology. The initial design was evaluated by the French Air Force (Armée de l’Air, AdA) and, in response to its determination that the aircraft lacked sufficient power for its requirements, was enlarged and adopted a pair of Turbomeca Marboré turbojet engines. First flying on 23 July 1952, the first production order for the type was received on 13 January 1954. In addition, the related CM.175 Zéphyr was a carrier-capable version developed and produced for the French Navy.

See oli ka ainus Briti võitleja, kes oli kogu sõja vältel pidevas tootmises. Spitfire on jätkuvalt populaarne entusiastide seas, umbes 54 Spitfire'i on õhukõlblikud, samas kui paljud teised on staatilised eksponaadid lennundusmuuseumides kogu maailmas.

Fotogalerii QF 25pdr Mark II välipüstol, The Ordnance QF 25-pounder, or more simply 25-pounder or 25-pdr, was the major British field gun and howitzer during World War II. It was introduced into service just before the war started, combining high-angle and direct-fire, relatively high rates of fire, and a reasonably lethal shell in a highly mobile piece. It remained the British Army’s primary artillery field piece well into the 1960s, with smaller numbers serving in training units until the 1980s. Many Commonwealth of Nations countries used theirs in active or reserve service until about the 1970s and ammunition for the weapon is currently being produced by Pakistan Ordnance Fac. Markus II: marki I vankrile paigaldatud oli II maailmasõja ajal standardpüstol. Need ehitati Austraalias ja Kanadas, kuid enamasti Ühendkuningriigis. Tarned (Ühendkuningriigi tootmisest) algasid 1940. aasta alguses ja alustasid esmakordselt teenistust Ühendkuningriigis asuva Kanada rügemendiga 1940. aasta mais. Prantsusmaal ei kaotatud Ühtegi Ordnance 25-pr Mk 2 vankril 25-pr Mark 1. See relv tulistas kõik laengud, 1 – 3 ja Super. 1942. aastal paigaldati relvale koonpidur, et kõrvaldada ebastabiilsus, mis tekkis 20 naela AP kesta tulistamisel Charge Superiga otsese tule madalatel kõrgusnurkadel. Relva tasakaalu säilitamiseks trunnidel paigaldati ka vastukaalkaal, otse põlvpükste rõnga ette. Muudetud relva nimetust ei muudetud. Lõpuks olid kõik Euroopas teenivad relvad nii ümber ehitatud.

2007 de Havilland DH.82 Tiger Moth on 1930. aastate biplaan, mille kujundas Geoffrey de Havilland ja mida opereerisid kuninglikud õhujõud (RAF) ja teised põhitreenerina. Tiger Moth jäi RAF-i teenistusse, kuni see asendati de Havilland Chipmunkiga 1952. aastal, kui paljud üleliigsed lennukid sisenesid tsiviiloperatsiooni. Paljud teised riigid kasutasid Tiger Mothi nii sõjalistes kui ka tsiviilrakendustes ning see on paljudes riikides laialdaselt kasutusel harrastuslennukina. Seda kasutatakse endiselt aeg-ajalt esmase koolituslennukina, eriti nende pilootide jaoks, kes soovivad omandada kogemusi enne teiste tagarattaga õhusõidukite juurde liikumist. Paljud töötavad nüüd erinevates ettevõtetes, mis pakuvad proovitunni kogemusi. 1975. aastal asutatud de Havilland Moth klubi on nüüd omanike ühendus, mis pakub vastastikust klubi ja tehnilist tuge.
