Introduction

高性能艦上戦闘機として開発が進められたF4U、航空母艦での運用が難しいと思われた初期型は陸上から運用されました。
強化改良戦闘爆撃型である各バージョンは、大戦後も航空母艦で運用され、マルチロールな活躍ぶりを発揮、戦闘爆撃機として長い間現役を務めます。
本機は強力なエンジンと4枚プロペラを持つ、その後期生産型です。

The F4U was developed as a high-performance carrier-based fighter, but the early models which experienced difficulties with carrier operations, was operated from land instead.
Each of the upgraded and improved fighter/bomber versions continued to be operated from carriers even after the war. Its success as a multi-role aircraft is well demonstrated and it served well as a fighter/bomber.
This unit is a late model with a powerful engine and four propellers.

Mechanics

Dive Bombers are one of the main types of plane used by CV(B/L). Their main role is to do damage during the Airstrike, with their "Dive Bombing" stat being the most important factor in this regard. Dive Bombers are additionally needed for dealing damage during day Shelling, especially for Aircraft Carrier Cut-Ins (CVCI).

They are vulnerable to shoot down during most Aerial Combat phases.
They bring some accuracy bonus against PT boats.
They cannot attack Installations unless they are Anti-Installation Dive Bombers.

This dive bomber has the ability to target installations during shelling.

This plane has Anti-Air Resistance.
