P-61C, Thunderstorm Project, USA. With their guns traded for meteorological equipment, a select number of P-61C’s would embark on a foundational meteorological and aviation safety project. While never designed for such use, the P-61 would provide data for a groundbreaking study that would reveal the effects of thunderstorms on aircraft and the behavior of the convection cells within storms, among other major scientific findings.
