Product DescriptionDetailed 1/48 scale assembly model kit of the Chance Vought F4U Corsair, a single-seat carrier and land based fighter of the United States NAVY and Marine Corps. The F4U saw service in both World War II and the Korean War. The Corsair was a formidable fighter aircraft as it was both fast and maneuverable, thanks in large to its Pratt & Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp radial (capable of speeds up to 400mph) and advanced aerodynamics. The F4U was universally feared by Japanese pilots, and by the end of World War II, the Corsair had accumulated an impressive 11:1 kill ratio in air-to-air engagements. This 1/48 scale model kit depicts the F4U-1A variant fitted with a wider clear-view two frame canopy and extended rear wheel landing gear shaft. This kit features: Detailed cockpit with one pilot figure. Parts to construct optional folding wings. Centerline bomb and assorted ordinance. Separate flaps can be constructed in up or down position. Decals with markings for 2 different aircrafts.
