Its Pratt \u0026amp; Whitney Double Wasp engine produced 2,000hp and allowed the Corsair to reach a maximum speed of 636km\/h. Among the different variants of the Corsair, the F4U-1 was the first to be mass-produced and it featured a characteristic framed canopy that was referred to as a \"Birdcage.\" They were deployed to the Pacific in February 1943 and became feared by Japanese forces due to their speed and firepower. A nightfighter version, designated F4U-2, was also created and featured a radar pod mounted near the wingtip of the right wing. Over 9,000 examples were produced and they were used by American, British, and New Zealand forces.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Containers_wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Grid_container Containers_content-box\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Grid_row Containers_row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Grid_col-12 Grid_col-sm-12 Grid_col-md-12 Grid_col-lg-12 Grid_align-self-auto Containers_col\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"Containers_content-box Containers_top Containers_justify-horizontal Containers_vertical-orientation\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"StyleWrapper_wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"ProductTilesGroup_wrapper\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAbout the Model\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e★Accurate model kit of the \"Birdcage\" canopy Corsair includes parts to assemble either the standard F4U-1 or the F4U-2 nightfighter. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"StyleWrapper_wrapper\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e★Distinctive inverted gull wing design faithfully rendered. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"StyleWrapper_wrapper\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e★Highly detailed engine and cockpit.
