The main project consists of two P-39 fuselage hulks
P-39D 41-6978 & P-39Q 44-3303, both of which were shipped to the pacific theater in the second world war.
There are also parts from several D, F, L and Q aircraft and multiple identities



P-39D 41-6978 crashed after an engine failure in 1942 in Vanuatu, this wreck was rediscovered and cut into several pieces by locals who removed some parts and scrapped them.

P-39Q 44-3303 survived the war and was demilitarized by the us army by cutting the wings off and severing the fuselage forward of the cockpit.
