What was in the P-40s sold to the Brit's before we entered the war.

When we did enter the war we started in Australia with the P-40s and P-39s
we had sold them.

The P40s that went to the AVG (Flying Tigers) did not have normal military
radios. What I understand was that what they did have was PISS POOR!
