The Allison 1710 engine was used in several fighters.
- The Lockheed P-38 Lightning mostly used it in combination with a supercharger.
- It was also used in the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk. The P-40 did not use it with a supercharger.
- The Bell P-39 Airacobra also used this engine. An interesting difference was that the P-39 had a cannon mounted to fire through the
propeller drive shaft.
