The top series of photos are of USS Ranger, during the North Africa landings. Some n70 P-40 E and F models were flown off to land ashore after the fight.
Malta also saw some P-40s delivered this way: Catapult launch (Because of the short take-off area) and landing ashore. There was never an Arrestor Hook to facilitate Trapping Aboard, so they could not land on carriers.
