Magic Factory 5001 1/48 Vought F4U-1A/2 Corsair Limited Edition Dual Combo

"Invincible Corsair" over Pacific-US Fighter Aircraft F4U Corsair

F4U Corsair is a famous carrier-based fighter aircraft deployed by U.S. Navy in WWII. With the first prototype manufactured in 1940 and final variant produced in 1953, it has the longest production run of any U.S. piston-engined fighters.

F4U-1A is an upgraded variant of F4U-1. The most notable distinction from F4U-1 includes lifting the pilot’s seat by 18cm, replacing the -1's "birdcage" framed canopy with a semi-bubble canopy, retaining only two frames on either side and a distinctive metal hood over the pilot's head. Thus the pilot’s overall visibility was greatly increased. Furthermore, based on actual experience of F4U-1, F4U-1A also removed top cowl flaps of cowling and replaced the open window in the floor of the cockpit with a mental plate.

The kit is of 1/48 scale, including parts for build complete two models, F4U-1A and F4U-2 one each respectively.
