Vultee was an American aircraft manufacturer founded in the 1930s by Vultee Aircraft, Inc.. The company became known for producing military and civilian aircraft, particularly during World War II. One of its most notable designs was the Vultee Vengeance, a dive bomber used by the U.S. military. After the war, Vultee faced challenges in the changing aviation market and eventually merged with Consolidated Aircraft in 1943. The company continued to contribute to aviation technology but eventually ceased operations in the late 1940s. Today, Vultee's legacy remains in the history of American aviation.
