Vought F4U-4 Corsair

The Vought F4U Corsair is an American fighter aircraft that saw service primarily in World War II and the Korean War. Designed and initially manufactured by Chance Vought, additional production contracts were given to Goodyear, whose Corsairs were designated FG, and Brewster, designated F3A.

The Corsair was designed and operated as a carrier-based aircraft, and entered service in large numbers with the U.S. Navy in late 1944 and early 1945. In addition, the Corsair was used as a land based aircraft by the U.S. Marine Corps.

The kit comes molded in two colors and has a decent fit with some flash.

There are two decal options, operational and traing. I was suprise at how well the decals held up, given they are 42 years old.

Cockpit detail was lacking, only a seat and pilot. I added the floor, controls, and console from spare parts. Tape was used for the seat belts.
