B-25H Gunship with rockets

That was taken in India, right?

These look to have been developed in the same area or the same series of tests. Very similar mount.

Seeing the P-38 mount begs the obvious question: Some fighter jocks achieved aerial victories with HVAR's, but did any pilot ever bring something down with a bazooka?

Pretty much a standard mount. Those are a 459th FS P-38J flown by Maj. Willard Webb. I've got good shots of A-20s, P-39s and P-47s with them also.

I always thought the cannon nosed B-25's were cool. Some of the pilots would swear that firing the cannon would stop the aircraft.

Cool shot of the buisness end of the 75mm cannon nose of a B-25. You all aware that the Hs.129 had a pak 75 mounted under the nose too.

I have never seen before B-25 with that armament configuration! Jack is definitely holly grail for researchers, modelers and aviation enthusiast at all

Pretty light weight H model! No nose .50's, no pack guns, just the rocket tubes and the 75
