Tamiya 1/32 Vought F4U-1 Corsair – “Birdcage”

The F4U-1 Corsair® was a truly unique aircraft, with a powerful 2,000hp engine and a massive 4m propeller, not to mention the highly characteristic inverted gull-wings. In October of 1940, it was the first American fighter to achieve a speed of 400mph (around 640kph). Initial production models of the aircraft featured a striking canopy called the “Birdcage”. This kit comes with  2 sets of rear fuselage parts to recreate initial or late production aircraft.
