Description
The SNJ is most famous as an advanced trainer during WWII. It also served in a variety of roles during and after the war, including forward air control in Korea. The designation AT-6 was used by the Army Air Corps, but it had other names as well. The Air Force designated it the T-6, the Navy called the aircraft an SNJ, and the Commonwealth Air Forces referred to it as a Harvard. The aircraft has a 600 hp Pratt & Whitney R-1340 radial engine and carried armament of three .30 caliber machine guns and a 400-500 pound rocket or bombload. Over 15,000 T-6s of all variants were produced between the mid-1930s and the mid-1950s. Gauntlet's SNJ-5 was delivered to the Navy in 1944. A tremendously versatile aircraft, the SNJ can be easily looped from cruise flight and is an outstanding platform for formation flying.
