Perhaps best known as the predecessor of the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk, the P-36 saw little combat with the United States Army Air Forces during World War II. It was the fighter used most extensively and successfully by the French Air Force during the Battle of France. The P-36 was also ordered by the governments of the Netherlands and Norway but did not arrive in time to see action before both were occupied by Nazi Germany.

@FalHartIndustries thanks man, it's a learning process and I've been doing it for a while
Dude! Your planes are Good!
@Sockdragger Ok thank you, I will look into it
@Tanner0501 Curtiss offered a simplified version of their export Hawk 75 that had a fixed landing gear. I can't upload a picture but You can Google the Curtiss Hawk 75 M, 75 N and 75 O for China, Siam and Argentina respectingly.
I used to build the Curtiss 75 M as a wooden toy plane, first of all because the fixed landing gear looked way cooler in wood than anything resembling the retractable one. Second because they looked way better when build in pair with an equally fixed gear Ki-27 for dogfighting
@Sockdragger what exactly is the Chinese version?
The Chinese version with the fixed landing gear please
