What I learned from the doco was that there were 5-6 wing variations - to carry 
different armament configuations. The E wing was a late variant that housed a 
cannon and a 50 cal. gun.
But I didn't know that Packard made Merlins, which is what this example has.
You can get full history by feeding TD248 into Google
