Comments: Two Martin AM-1 Mauler attack planes in the late 1940s. The plane in the foreground is armed with bombs and three topedoes, the plane in the background is carrying twelve 12.7 cm (5 in) HVAR-rockets under the wings, two Tiny Tim rockets, and a bomb on the centerline station. Besides these impressive loads the Mauler had inferior handling characteristics and could not compete with the Douglas AD Skyraider. |
