Tamiya 1/48 F-4U1A Corsair Model Kit

The Vought F4U-1A improved upon the early Corsair with a raised cockpit and semi-bubble canopy for better pilot visibility, resolving the landing approach issues that had initially prevented carrier operations. Armed with six .50 caliber machine guns and powered by the 2,000 hp R-2800, the Corsair achieved an 11:1 kill ratio in the Pacific. Tamiya's 1/48 kit features the improved canopy, detailed R-2800 engine, and the iconic inverted gull wing.
