P-61B Black Widow Premium Edition | 05036 (5036) | Dragon | 1:72
The Northrop P-61 Black Widow was the first American aircraft designed specifically as a night fighter from the ground up. The prototype flew in 1942 and operational deployment began in 1944. The large twin-engine aircraft accommodated radar, a crew with specialized duties, and heavy armament.
Two Pratt & Whitney R-2800 radial engines were housed in separate tail booms. The central fuselage contained the crew members and radar equipment. Four 20 mm cannons under the fuselage formed the main armament; various versions also featured a gun turret on top.
The radar operator helped the pilot approach an enemy aircraft in the dark. Ground stations could provide initial directions, after which the onboard radar supported the final interception. This cooperation was a major difference from hunting purely by sight.
The P-61B was an improved production version. Black Widows were deployed in Europe and the Pacific for night interception and attacks on enemy territory. Approximately 700 aircraft of the family were built. The P-61 demonstrates how radar extended air warfare into the night.
