The Q version of the P-39 was the one most produced with 4,905 being built. Russia received the bulk of the “Q”s where it was used mostly for low altitude air to air and ground attacks. The fact that the “Q” was equipped with a .50 caliber gun pod under each wing was exactly what they needed. In the Pacific the US military realized the P-39 was best used in ground attacks like the Russians so the Airacobra pilots became quite proficient at strafing Japanese airfields and supply bases.
