About the P-61B Black Widow Model

The Northrop P-61B Black Widow was the first American night fighter designed from scratch specifically for that purpose. It entered service with the United States Army Air Forces during World War II, from 1944 to 1945, and was extensively used in the Pacific, Europe, and China during night fighting and anti-aircraft missions. The aircraft stood out thanks to its large silhouette, radar equipment, and armament of a turret with four 20 mm cannons and four .50 caliber machine guns. It is known for taking part in the last combat missions of World War II.
