About the Vought F4U-1A Corsair

Introduced into service in 1942, the Vought F4U-1 featured inverted gull wings \r\n and a massive 2,000hp engine spinning the largest propeller mounted on a fighter \r\n at the time. While the fighter&39;s performance and toughness was quite impressive, \r\n deficiencies such as inadequate forward visibility, restricted all-round visibility \r\n due to the early frame-like canopy, and the tendency for the left and right \r\n wings to stall at different speeds led to various improvements being added throughout \r\n production, eventually resulting in the F4U-1A version. These improvements included \r\n a longer tailwheel leg for better forward visibility, a new canopy for better \r\n all-round visibility, and an almost unnoticeable 15cm &39;stall strip&39; fixed to \r\n the leading edge of the right wing to ensure both wings would stall at the same \r\n speed.
