Re: Can anyone identify the TBM-3E2?

Thanks Alex. I notice that both 3E and 3E2 became either AS Mk.4s or AS Mk.5, so whatever the difference was, it had no effect on the choice for the FAA role. This confirms the existence of the designation but still leaves us in the dark as to what the USN meant by it.

The ASV 19A was designed for the Gannet, the Avengers just being used as trainers. Presumably it was removed from those airframes later passed on.
