Kit 92232 offers a distinctive companion to the better-known P-39 Airacobra, exploring Bell’s attempt to adapt its unconventional fighter layout for carrier operations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"_p_14z1t_159\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFirst flown on 13 May 1940, the Airabonita retained an Allison engine mounted behind the pilot, driving the nose-mounted propeller through an extension shaft. Unlike the P-39, it featured a conventional tailwheel undercarriage, underwing radiators and an arrestor hook for carrier use.
