Historical background of the Republic P-43 Lancer

The Republic P-43 Lancer was developed by the renowned Republic Aviation company as a successor to the P-35. It served mainly in the American air forces, but was also used by China and Peru. The reconnaissance variant, like its combat versions, featured a metal construction, two-seat configuration, and was equipped with an efficient inline engine by the standards of the 1930s and 1940s. The production and operational use of these aircraft fell before and during World War II (mainly 1939-1943).
