Introduction

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。

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.

This unit is a late model with a powerful engine and four propellers.
