• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The item on the top of the F3F wing is a gunnery training camera (not a combat gun camera). It was used on other Navy fighters/dive bombers at the time as well, such as Vindicators, Devastators, SBC Helldivers (the biplane version), Brewster Buffaloes, etc. - all seen with great clarity in the 1941 movie "Dive Bomber" as well. Those cameras were used for scoring pilots on their gunnery accuracy on training flights. Actual combat gun cameras were much smaller, and mounted internally on the next generation of US military aircraft.
