Description

The Vought F4U Corsair was one of the first fighter planes to give the Americans the tactical edge during the in the Pacific. At a time when the navy's aging P-40s and Wildcats were too slow and the P-38s too few in number to cope with the maneuverable Zero, the fast, powerful Corsair stemmed the tide of Japanese victories.
