Yeni Amerikan dalan bombardiman tayyaresi [America's Newest Dive Bomber], 1942 US poster: An aerial photograph of a US Navy

Yeni Amerikan dalan bombardiman tayyaresi [America's Newest Dive Bomber] (Turkish edition)

An aerial photograph of a US Navy single-engine aircraft sits in a blue border of white stars, with a flag graphic and a captioned portrait of President Roosevelt below a short Turkish text. The text claims the new dive bomber is faster, longer-ranged and carries a heavier bomb load than any other state's, with no figures or comparison given (card-stacking), and the flag, stars and presidential portrait lend national authority to the claim (transfer).

YENİ AMERİKAN DALAN
BOMBARDİMAN TAYYARESİ

Amerika donanmasının hava koluna en yeni ilâvesi resimde
gösterilen dalan bombardman tayyaresidir. Amerikan donanması
dalan bombardiman tayyaresinin tekniğinin mucididir. Bu yeni
model başka devletlerin dalan bombardman tayyarelerinden daha
süratli ve daha uzun uçuşlara muktedir olduğu gibi daha ağır
bomba yükü taşımağa elverişlidir. Amerikan tayyare fabrikaları
aded itibarile bir misli artmıştır ve mütemadiyen artmaktadır.

THE NEW AMERICAN DIVE BOMBER

The newest addition to the air arm of the American navy is the dive bomber shown in the picture. The American navy is the inventor of the technique of the dive bomber. This new model is capable of higher speed and longer flights than the dive bombers of other states, and is also suited to carrying a heavier bomb load. The number of American aircraft factories has increased one-fold (doubled) and continues to increase.
