I share with you some pictures of fighters Curtiss P-40 operating aboard aircraft carriers or on the flight deck. Some questions for aviation and history enthusiasts of WW2. There was a naval version of the P-40? Which countries have used during the war and which Operating Theatres? To view photos visit the link below:

Nice photos Marcelo, as to the question of them being naval variants, the P-40 did not have one. The aircraft in the photos are being transported aboard the carriers near to their new bases then they get flown off for the final couple hundred miles, the same was done with many different aircraft types including the P-47.
