Fake Mitsubishi Zero, I guess some modified Curtiss T6 as usual?

The left picture showing the cockpit is a Grumman F6F Hellcat, but the other two are most likely North American T-6 Texan, or probably flying under the US Navy name SNJ.

Consolidated PBY-5A Catalina ...nice :)

The first three pictures show the PBY-6A version with the radome over cockpit for radar (built January - May 1945). The right picture is a PBY-5A (built October 1941 - January 1945).

I don't know what it is...

It is a Douglas A-20 Havoc that lost a few bits and pieces, like rudders and front wheel.

Curtiss T6? ..not sure

It must be archive film material showing a Nakajima B6N 'Tenzan', Allied name 'Jill'.

??

I am fairly certain it is a Mitsubishi G4M 'Ishikirikko', known to the US Forces as 'Betty'.

The first picture shows a Sangamon class escort aircraft carriers of the United States Navy. Four such carriers were made by converting Cimarron class oilers, namely the USS Sangamon (CVE-26), USS Suwannee (CVE-27), USS Chenango (CVE-28), and USS Santee (CVE-29).
The second picture is probably a light cruiser of the USN.
The third and fourth picture show an Essex class aircraft carrier, short hull version.

Google translation just gave up, but I guess I understood. :)

The image quality is good. Is the film out on DVD?
