Description:
- The Curtiss SOC Seagull was a United States single-engine scout observation biplane aircraft, designed by Alexander Solla of the Curtiss-Wright Corporation for the United States Navy. The aircraft served on battleships and cruisers in a seaplane configuration, being launched by catapult and recovered from a sea landing. The wings folded back against the fuselage for storage aboard ship. When based ashore or on carriers the single float was replaced by fixed wheeled landing gear.

Discover the remarkable history of the Curtiss SOC Seagull, the versatile biplane scout-bomber that served with distinction throughout World War II. Often overshadowed by more famous aircraft, the Seagull proved itself an indispensable workhorse for the U.S. Navy, conducting reconnaissance, spotting, and bombing missions across multiple theaters. This comprehensive volume from Ginter's Naval Fighters series examines the SOC's design evolution, operational deployment, and combat record with detailed technical analysis and historical documentation. Perfect for aviation historians and modelers seeking deeper insight into this underappreciated but vital naval aircraft that deserves greater recognition in warbird history.
