The Vought F4U Corsiar


The Vought F4U Corsiar was one of the first, and best carrier-borne aircraft of all time. It was intally equipped with machene-guns and bombs, but bombs, rokets and cannon where soon added.

The Corsiar was intally deemed unsutible for carrier-bound operations, It was first flowen from land on Guadalcanal. The Navy took it on, and was the main fighter in the last year of the Pacific war. The Corsiar was also used by the Marines.

The Corsiar was used in the Korean War, as a ground attack aircraft and some knocked out MiG-15's!

The Corsiar was a stable workhorse, that was inportant to the final victory in the Pacific.
