The real subject

The F6F Hellcat was a rugged carrier fighter of the US Navy that became one of the key weapons of the war in the Pacific. It stood out for its tough structure, the strong output of its radial engine and its good armament, which gave it the upper hand over its Japanese opponents. The F6F-3 version was the first widely produced variant, operated from the decks of aircraft carriers as well as from land bases.

Building and painting tips

Glue the parts with liquid cement for plastic. Finish and paint the cockpit before closing the fuselage. A primer is recommended, along with an airbrush for the naval blue-gray shades and a clear coat under the decals. Where the edition includes photo-etched parts, use super glue.
