Product description



The Vought F4U Corsair is a U.S. Navy aircraft. It was produced between 1942 and 1952 by vought-Sikorsky Aircraft. During the Second World War, the aircraft was also produced at goodyear plants under the name FG and in Brewster as f3A. The popular "Corsair" entered service in 1942. However, the design process dates back to 1938. The distinctive shape of the broken wings and the rear-shifted pilot's cab were the result of numerous modifications during the design and testing phase of prototypes. The culmination of the work was a structure with good performance, but difficult to pilot (especially during landing). The aircraft was characterized by a high-power engine, speed, excellent visibility and a long retractable chassis, which was forced by the use of a propeller with a diameter of up to 4.06 m. It was armed with six 12.7 mm guns, two 450 kg bombs and eight unguided HVAR 127 mm missiles. The Vought F4U was equipped with the U.S. Navy during the Pacific battles. In Europe, corsairs in British service were involved in attacks on the battleship Tirpitz. The aircraft was also used in the early stages of the Korean War.
