Chance Vought F4U Corsair (Model V-166) model airplane

Acknowledged universally to be the most outstanding carrier-based fighter of World War II; when used by the US Navy in the Pacific from April 1944 this airplane was credited with no fewer than 2,140 victories against the Japanese for the loss of only 189 of its own number. Interestingly, the Navy at first wanted nothing to do with this airplane because the initial design had poor forward visibility. However, the Corsair was the best airplane at catching the Japanese kamikaze pilots, so after a modification of the landing gear and raising of the cockpit to improve forward view, the F4U-1A (as it was designated with these modifications) proved a very popular airplane. The Corsair was a potent fighter-bomber, capable of launching bombs, missiles, and napalm. Airplane production had been continuous for just over 10 years when the line at Dallas Texas, was closed down in December, 1952; a period in which 12,571 examples of the outstanding fighter aircraft had been built by Vought, Brewster, and Goodyear. The F4U-4 was the designation of the second major production version of the airplane with R-2800-18W or R-2800-42W engines. The F4U-1A used one 2,000-hp Pratt & Whitney R-2800-8 radial piston engine, giving the airplane a maximum speed of 417 mph at 19,900 feet or 316 mph at sea level, cruising speed of 182 mph, initial climb rate of 3,120 feet per minute, service ceiling of 36,900 feet, and a range of 1,015 miles. Airplane armament was six wing-mounted 50-caliber machine guns.
