F4U-4 Corsair

A model of the famous US Navy Fighter Aircraft.

Originally deemed too hazardous for carrier landings, the Corsair was given to the Marines... and they loved it. Post war victory figures indicate that the Corsair was superior to the Japanese Zero in every way. US Pilots racked up a claimed 12 to 1 kill ratio against the Zero and recorded only 189 air to air combat losses for the entire war. The F4U-4 variant of the Corsair went on to serve in the Korean War as a fighter bomber, shredding convoys and blasting depots. Kit features twin radial engine, detailed cockpit, auxiliary tanks, bombs, and full decals.
