F4U Corsair Profile Drawings
The Chance Vought F4U Corsair had the longest production run of
any piston-powered fighter, being built for the US Navy and US Marine Corps from
1940 to 1953. It was the fighter most feared by the Japanese, and enjoyed
a kill ratio of 11:1
against enemy aircraft. The F4U was the plane flown
by the famous Black Sheep squadron, VMF 214, during WW II, commanded by the
legendary USMC Maj. "Pappy Boyington." It flew from both land bases and
carriers, and was used as a close support aircraft in the Korean War.
Presented here is George Bieda's detailed rendition of this famous aircraft.
