The Bell P-39 Airacobra was an innovative World War II fighter aircraft distinguished by its unconventional mid-fuselage engine placement and nose-mounted 37mm cannon. First flown on April 6, 1939, it was a single-seat, low-wing monoplane powered by an Allison V-1710 inline engine. Measuring over 30 feet in length, the P-39 achieved its greatest success in Soviet service rather than with American forces. Bell Aircraft Company produced 9,584 Airacobras between 1941 and August 1944. AviatorDB tracks 4,083 Bell aircraft currently registered in the FAA database.
