AT6 Texan

USAF North American AT-6 / SNJ Texan model airplane

This airplane was almost certainly the most extensively used trainer of all time, with more than 17,000 airplanes built by North American. One of the earlier numbers of the great North American T-6 trainer family was the AT-6A, used by the United States Army Air Corps as a gunnery trainer from 1941 onwards. The SNJ was the US Navy designation for their aircraft. The SNJ-5 used one 550-hp Pratt & Whitney R-1340-AN-1 radial piston engine, giving the airplane a maximum speed of 205 mph at 5,000 feet, service ceiling of 21,500 feet, and a range of 750 miles.

The Texan remains a favorite trainer aircraft among warbird collectors around the world. Texans are manufactured by North American Aviation for training fighter pilots of the United States Army Air Forces, United States Navy, Royal Air Force and other air forces of the British Commonwealth during World War II.

The T-6 is has many designations depending on the model and operating air force and the USAAC called it as T-6. The first AT-6 built was in 1938. It incorporates a Pratt & Whitney R-1340-AN-1 Wasp radial engine w/600 h.p. The AT-6 is fitted with a single fixed .30 cal. machine gun, used for basic aerial and air-to-ground gunnery training. The AT-6G has a crew of two, a student and an instructor. It has a maximum speed of 208 mph at 5,000 ft and a range of 730 miles.

Ever since World War II, the T-6 has been a regular participant at air shows and was featured in many movies.
