American Aircraft By Code Name

Name the code name of these aircraft there may be multiple, some have a 2 or 3 after them: Like T-6 and Texan 2 I left out most WW1 due to most aircraft being British or not having a true nickname Tell me if I made any errors, also some were never in service.

O/L = Observation | C = Cargo | SB/SC = Diver Bomber | Q = Drone
