Vengeance

Last week a new dive-bomber for Britain appeared: the Vultee Vengeance. Its military load, range, speed were secrets. Unofficial claims indicated that it can carry upwards of a ton of bombs, that it has a range of 1,000 miles or more, a diving speed of better than 300 m.p.h. Its power plant is an air-cooled, radial Wright engine (the 1,700-h.p. Cyclone).

Vultee is already tooled up to make the stubby, two-place Vengeance in quantity, in a new plant at Nashville, Tenn. Northrop Aircraft, Inc. in California will also make the Vengeance. At dedication ceremonies this week, Wendell Willkie said that by year's end Vultee's Nashville plant will be turning out 100 planes a month.
