Introduction

大戦初期の太平洋上で零戦としのぎを削った名艦上戦闘機、その改良型です。
ワイルドキャットとよばれたF4Fシリーズは、格闘戦闘で劣る零戦隊を相手に果敢に戦いました。
本機は火力を強化し、空母艦載に最適化したF4Fの完成形といえるバージョンです。

An improved version of the famous shipboard fighter that competed with the Zero in the Pacific at the beginning of the Great War.
Known as the Wildcat, the F4F series fought valiantly against the Zero squadrons despite being inferior.
This aircraft is a final version of the F4F with enhanced firepower and optimizations for carrier operations.

Mechanics

Fighters  /  are one of the main types of plane used by CV(B/L). Their main role is to bring Air Power during the 1st Aerial Stage, with their "Fighter Power"   stat being the most important factor in this regard. Fighters are additionally needed for Aircraft Carrier Cut-Ins (CVCI) during the day Shelling.

Notes

Not to be confused with other aircraft of this family (see here).
