Powered by the Pratt and Whitney R-2800 Double Wasp, the Corsair was one of the fastest fighters of its time, and its bent wing shape gave enough ground clearance for its large propeller. Japanese pilots came to respect it, and it earned a reputation as one of the finest fighters of the Pacific war.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInjection moulded plastic parts in 1\/48 scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInverted gull wing and long nose of the Corsair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear parts for the raised framed canopy of the F4U-1A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaterslide decal sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst released by Hobby Boss in 2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is supplied unassembled and unpainted, so glue, paint and tools are required and sold separately.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hobby Boss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53961836724490,"sku":"HBB80383","price":23.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0861\/4966\/0938\/files\/62451d99bcb07.jpg?v=1792873903","url":"https:\/\/super-models.co.uk\/products\/hobby-boss-f4u-1a-corsair-80383","provider":"SuperModels","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
