Flying Tigers!

A pair of Curtiss P–40 Warhawk fly in formation as part of the Arsenal of Democracy Flyover, which occurred over Washington, DC, on May 8, 2015. These planes flew as part of the second formation of the flyover, the "Pearl Harbor" formation. According to the Washington Post, "Claire Lee Chennault’s American Volunteer Group – the Flying Tigers – made this single-engined fighter, outmoded at the start of the war, famous through their hit-and-run tactics against the Japanese in China. The British, the Russians and other allied air forces used it in all theaters.", May 7, 2015.
